John Rue & Associates is currently representing the parents of a 5th grade boy who has been a victim of bias harassment and bullying in school due to his "non-conforming" gender identity. Our goal is ... to assure that L.M. receives a safe and appropriate education from the school district. Because it is unlikely that a safe environment can be achieved in L.M.'s present school, we are working with the district to explore placement in a different school in the district or elsewhere. We are also assisting the parents in investigating the school's handling of bullying reports and whether they are fulfilling their duties to their students and are in compliance with state law.
