联邦对洛杉矶联合学区启动执法，指其瞒家长处理学生敏感信息
美国教育部与司法部周一宣布，对全美第二大学区——洛杉矶联合学区（LAUSD）启动执法行动，指其政策涉嫌要求学校员工向家长隐瞒学生敏感信息，包括性别认同等内容。
教育部长 Linda McMahon 表示，家长不是敌人，学校不应把重要信息挡在家庭之外。司法部民权部门官员 Harmeet Dhillon 也称，家长是孩子的天然照护者和保护者。联邦政府同时致函各州总检察长，提醒学区遵守保护家长知情权的联邦法律。
这起行动把「学校应告知家长多少、学生隐私边界在哪里」的争论再次推到台前。对洛杉矶华人家长来说，后续要看联邦执法范围、学区回应，以及是否影响加州其他学区的家长通知政策。（资料来源：纽约邮报、美国教育部与司法部公开表态）
Feds Launch Enforcement Action Against LAUSD Over Parent Notification Policies
The U.S. Department of Education and Department of Justice announced an enforcement action Monday against Los Angeles Unified School District, the nation's second-largest school system, over policies the administration says improperly require school employees to conceal sensitive student information, including gender identity, from parents.
Education Secretary Linda McMahon said parents are not the enemy and that schools should not keep important information from families. Assistant Attorney General Harmeet K. Dhillon called parents children's natural providers and protectors. The administration also sent a joint letter to state attorneys general warning districts to comply with federal laws protecting parents' access to information.
The move revives the national fight over how much schools must tell parents and where student privacy begins. In Los Angeles, the next steps are the scope of the federal action, LAUSD's response, and whether other California districts change parent-notification policies.
