And it can send struggling children down a one-way path to irreversible harm.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>In a statement to Fox News, the South Madison Community School Corporation said that SMCSC &ldquo;has concluded the lawsuit filed by former employee Kathy McCord.

SMCSC chose to settle to avoid the significant time, expense, and disruption of continued litigation and to allow the District to remain focused on serving students. SMCSC has not admitted any wrongdoing and the Court made no findings of liability against the District.&rdquo;<\/p>\n<p>Wagner concluded, &ldquo;We are excited to settle this case and hope this settlement encourages public schools around the country to put an end to unconstitutional policies that violate educators&rsquo; and parents&rsquo; rights,&rdquo;<\/p>\n<div style=\"position: relative;\">\n<div class=\"ff-fancy-header-container\"> \t\t\t \t<\/div>\n<div class=\"entry-submit-correction inner-content\">\n<div class=\"correction-form\">\n<form style=\"display: none;\">\n<div class=\"sc-name-field\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<label>* Name<\/label> \t\t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"name\" required> \t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<div class=\"sc--field\"> \t\t\t\t\t\t<label>* <\/label> \t\t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"text\" name=\"\" required> \t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p> \t\t\t\t\t<label>* Message<\/label> \t\t\t\t\t<br \/> \t\t\t\t\t<textarea name=\"message\" required><\/textarea> \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"required-message\" style=\"display: none; padding-bottom: 15px;\">* All fields are required.<\/div>\n<p> \t\t\t\t\t<input type=\"submit\" value=\"Submit\" onclick=\"event.preventDefault(); firefly_sc();\"> \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n<div class=\"firefly-sc-confirm\" style=\"display: none;\">Success!<\/div>\n<\/p><\/form>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p> \t\t<script> \t\t\tfunction firefly_sc() { \t\t\t\tif( typeof window.captchaPublicKey==typeof undefined ){ \t\t\t\t\tconsole.error('window.captchaPublicKey is not defined'); \t\t\t\t} \t\t\t\tgrecaptcha.execute( window.captchaPublicKey, { action: 'submit_correction' } ).then( function( token ) { \t\t\t\t\tvar opts={ \t\t\t\t\t\taction:    'firefly_sc_submit', \t\t\t\t\t\tname:      document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"name\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\t:     document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\tmessage:   document.querySelector( '.entry-submit-correction [name=\"message\"]' ).value, \t\t\t\t\t\tpost_id:   firefly_post_id, \t\t\t\t\t\tcap_token: token \t\t\t\t\t}  \t\t\t\t\tvar inputs=[ 'name', '', 'message' ];  \t\t\t\t\tfor( var i=0; i <inputs.length; i++ ) if( !

A 37-year veteran educator, McCord filed the suit in 2023 after her dismissal following media interviews about the district\u2019s approach to gender identity issues. She said no public-school employee should be fired for sharing personal beliefs or for withholding information from families, especially when a student is facing challenges, and she emphasized the importance of parental involvement in a child\u2019s life.<\/p>\n<p>McCord was represented by the Alliance Defending Freedom (ADF), which said the district had adopted a policy in August 2021 requiring staff to use a student\u2019s chosen name and pronouns even if they did not align with the student\u2019s sex, without parental notice or consent and, in some cases, without informing parents. McCord objected to the directive, and after confirming details with a reporter, she was terminated. The settlement covered damages, legal fees, and costs. ADF Senior Counsel Vincent Wagner stated that the case underscores the principle that schools should collaborate with parents and honor constitutional rights, and he hoped the outcome would spur other schools to abandon unconstitutional practices.<\/p>\n<p>The district issued a statement indicating the lawsuit has been resolved and noting that a court had, in August 2025, largely ruled in its favor on most of McCord\u2019s claims, with no admission of liability. The district said the settlement was reached to avoid continued litigation and disruption, allowing focus to remain on students. Indiana later enacted a law requiring parental notification in cases involving a child\u2019s name or pronoun changes and compelling the district to retract its prior directive. The district had previously used a \u201cGender Support Plan\u201d that did not require parental consent or notification and did not always inform parents through meetings or postings<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2591264,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/School-settles-with-counselor-over-trans-policy.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651],"tags":[73160,5152,74947,9811,77848],"class_list":["post-2591263","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","tag-civil-rights-2","tag-education","tag-employment-law-2","tag-settlement","tag-transgender-policy-2"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/School-settles-with-counselor-over-trans-policy.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2591263","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2591263"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2591263\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2591267,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2591263\/revisions\/2591267"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2591264"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2591263"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2591263"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2591263"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
