These School Districts Are Removing ‘Gender Identity,’ ‘Sexual Orientation’ From the Classroom in 2023

School districts in Nebraska, Texas and Pennsylvania have introduced new policies or amendments that would alter current practices, including references to “gender identity” and “sexual orientation.” The Archdiocese of Omaha, Nebraska, which oversees large areas of churches and Catholic schools in and around Omaha, announced earlier this month that it was changing its gender policy, initially introduced in the spring, and would require students to behave and be treated according to their biological gender.

“[Students must] conduct themselves in accordance with their God-given biological sex as it relates to the use of personal pronouns, dress code, use of bathrooms, and participation in school-sponsored activities,” the policy states.
