Texas Insider Report: AUSTINTexas As I said from the beginning Superintendent Kent Scribner violated the Texas Education Code when he unilaterally adopted his so-called transgender policies without school board approval. 
Today Texas Attorney General agreed. Todays Attorney General opinion is a clear and resounding victory for parents within the Fort Worth ISD (FWISD) who deserve a transparent superintendent and school board that follows the law said Texas Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick (right).
It is never appropriate to threaten school teachers or administrators for following state law which requires sharing student information with parents.
In light of this Attorney General opinion and the overwhelming opposition to these policies I once again call upon Superintendent Scribner to pull down his illegal policies. If he does not I call upon him to tender his resignation said Patrick renewing his early May call for the superintendents resignation.
In early May when the policy was first announced Patrick stated:
I call upon the parents within the Fort Worth ISD to take immediate steps to repeal this stealthy scheme and remove Dr. Scribner from his post."
After less than a year as superintendent Dr. Scribner has lost his focus and thereby his ability to lead the Fort Worth ISD. He has placed his own personal political agenda ahead of the more than 86000 students attending 146 schools in the district by unilaterally adopting Transgender Student Guidelines" Patrick said.
Without any discussion with parents board members principals or other community leaders Dr. Scribners unilateral action underscores this lack of fitness to hold his position as superintendent.
Campus safety should be of paramount concern for anyone in his position. Every parent especially those of young girls should be outraged."
The State of Texas has an affirmative responsibility to provide a safe environment in the schools where attendance is compulsory" said the Lt. Governor.
