Local teacher reinstated after refusing to use preferred pronouns, district policy suspended

TL;DR

The majority were there in support of biology and anatomy teacher Daren Cusato.Cusato was suspended last week after refusing to refer to transgender students by their preferred pronouns, citing religious beliefs.“My uncle Daren is standing up for what is right, even though he is standing by himself.“I am standing up here tonight to ask you to separate these two things: the very divisive but trendy topic of pronouns and the precedent that you are setting, which is that teachers need to modify their engagement of students based on how that student feels,” another said.One woman derided the district for acting in what she perceived to be a fear of “getting sued.”“We shouldn’t be afraid of being sued."
