School district faces backlash for requiring students to participate in LGBT 'coming out' exercise

A California school district is facing backlash after a teacher allegedly forced students to role-play in an LGBT “coming out” exercise inspired by a nationally recognized activist group.

Attorneys for parents in the Vista Unified School District (VUSD) in San Diego say the district violated their legal rights in a gender ideology activity during a freshman class at Rancho Buena Vista High School (RBVHS), where students were reportedly required to participate in a role-playing exercise called "Coming Out Stars."

The activity, adapted from the LGBT activist group The Trevor Project, instructed students to imagine “each of you is now gay or lesbian, and you are about to begin your coming out process.”

Broyles and NCLP allege that VUSD failed to notify parents about the lessons, pursuant to the California Healthy Youth Act (CHYA), which requires districts to provide parents with advance notice and the ability to opt their children out of sexual education courses.
