New Jersey Attorney General Matthew Platkin has filed three more civil rights lawsuits against municipal school districts for adopting policies that require schools to notify parents about any changes in their children’s gender identity at school.

The new filings, against school districts in Manalapan-Englishtown, Middletown, and Marlboro, follow a complaint filed by Platkin last month against the Hanover Township School Board for adopting a new policy that he said broke state discrimination laws by requiring schools to “out” children to their parents.
