Nonbinary teacher boasts on changing students’ genders without parents knowing: ‘They need protection’
Olivia Garrison, a California teacher, boasted Monday about helping students conceal their social transitions from their parents.
Fox News Digital discovered that Garrison was a 9th-grade history teacher at Del Oro High School in the Kern High Schools District.
Transgender children start with social transitioning. This involves changing their names and pronouns, getting a haircut to match their preferred gender expression, and also changing their clothes.

Garrison stated that her job is a public service and she protects children. Sometimes they need protection from their parents. Garrison spoke to The Times. She didn’t immediately respond to a request to comment.
This report was about liberal parents outraged at Garrison’s teachers icing their children’s care.
Garrison’s district is involved in preventing parents from knowing about social transitions. According to its website, California has a form for students to request a change in pronouns. Students can use it without parents’ knowledge. Garrison is then listed as an adviser by the GSA (Gay-Straight Alliance).
“Please fill out the Request for Name Change/Gender Marker Form and send it to your principal. The form does not require a parent’s signature,” the district stated.
Garrison is one of many teachers who helped to hide gender transitions in schools.
Lane Cogdill, a Maryland teacher, admitted to intentionally hiding students’ gender changes on TikTok “especially from their parents,” Fox News Digital discovered.
According to the school’s website, Lane Cogdill is employed at Silver Spring International Middle School in Montgomery County Public Schools District. According to its website, Lane Cogdill uses the pronouns “ze/zir,” they/them and “he/him”.
Cogdill said that when students ask about their gender, teachers will ask them their name and pronouns. If parents or school administrators request it, they would hide it.
Mandi Jung, a Minneapolis anti-capitalist science teacher, said that she used a survey that allows students to hide a gender identity change in the classroom. Fox News Digital discovered this.
Students were asked to answer questions about their names and pronouns, as well as whether they can be used in direct communication with parents.
Teachers from all over the country boasted about including gender theory into their curriculum and classroom libraries.
Skye Tooley is a Saturn Street Elementary teacher in Los Angeles Unified Schools District. She discussed TikTok about using a “gender fluid” stuffed animal to teach children pronouns. Gender fluidity is a change in the person’s gender identity or expression over time.
“This is a llama Unicorn… I thought it was cute to let my children name the llama Unicorn. It was a mistake. Tooley stated that this little llama was gender-fluid. We will practice pronouns together with her.”
“Children are more open to these topics than adults and they are much more comfortable with gender, gender assumptions, pronouns and all that it entails. It is appropriate for child development and appropriate for age,” the teacher stated.
Tooley also provided an example of a stuffed pet that used they/them pronouns.
“I began talking to students about Norbert, the Narwhal… we practice making mistakes with their Pronouns and correcting them.”
Danita McCray, another teacher from Sacramento City Unified District recommended that toddlers use a “gender unicorn”, to introduce gender theory.
McCray stated that “early childhood” is defined as 0-8 years of age, which is roughly what it looks like for children between preschool and third grade. In a Fox News Digital exclusive video McCray explained, “Now, transgender and gender nonconforming children are in the earliest stages of their lives.”
“I’ve done research. I’ve earned my doctorate. At five years old, children are still very young. She said that children can understand gender from as young as three years of age.
