Transgender student ‘violated, dehumanized’ by Frisco trustee Marvin Lowe: complaint

A then 16-year-old transgender student, from a school district outside of North Texas, said Frisco Independent School District Board Trustee Marvin Lowe made him feel “dehumanized, violated and unsafe” after he spoke on a panel last September at a state educational conference in San Antonio.

The student, from Brownsville, and his mother, who The Dallas Morning News is not naming because the student is a minor, sent an emailed complaint Oct. 22 to the Frisco School District detailing the encounter.

The alleged incident — some details of which have been corroborated by at least two witnesses, including the student’s mother — took place Sept. 28 at the Texas Association of School Boards (TASB) and Texas Association of School Administration (TASA) Conference, according to the documents The Dallas Morning News received through a public records request.
