Wisconsin Parent Files Lawsuit Against District For Refusing to Provide Copy of Transgender Middle School Teacher’s Speech to Students
A parent in Wisconsin has filed a lawsuit against a school district for refusing to provide a copy of a speech a middle school teacher gave when he came out as transgender to his students.
Orchestra teacher Jacob Puccio at Northstar Middle School in Eau Claire told his students he would transition to a woman and asked to be called “Ms. Puccio.”
With help from the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty, the parent, Leah Buchman, alleges in the lawsuit that parents had requested the speech, and the district refused to comply.
According to WILL, on the morning of June 5, 2023, the second-to-last day of the school year, “all orchestra students were required to report to the orchestra room during homeroom.
