Cross-Dressing Elementary School Gives Moral Objector an Exemption

Plano, TX- Today Liberty Legal Institute came to the aid of a concerned parent requesting an excused absence for her children on official cross-dressing day in her children’s elementary school.

Tomorrow, November 17 is cross-dressing day for students, pre-K through sixth grade, at Spurger Elementary School.

“It is outrageous that a school in a small town in east Texas would encourage their 4-year-olds to be cross-dressers,” said Hiram Sasser, director of litigation for Liberty Legal Institute.

After speaking with Liberty Legal Institute, Superintendent Angela Matterson and the attorney for the district agreed to exempt the two children from attendance tomorrow based on their parent’s moral convictions, as Texas law requires.

“Schools exist to educate our children, not perform social experiments on them,” Sasser said.
