The Chino Valley Unified School District made changes to its parent notification policy last week as it faces a lawsuit from state Attorney General Rob Bonta, who called the policy discriminatory.

The original policy, passed in July, required district schools to notify parents in writing within three days if their child requests to be identified as a different gender, changes their name and pronouns in the classroom and uses the bathroom and locker room facilities of a different gender.
