The district was accused of "extreme and outrageous conduct" by the teachers that pushed the student "on a path toward transitioning as a boy and drove a wedge between mother and child," the report explained. A California mother has accused two teachers in her local school district of trying to manipulate her 11-year-old daughter into adopting a transgender lifestyle – and concealing their agenda from her, the mother. The Mercury News explained that parent Jessica Konen has submitted a claim against the Spreckels Union School District, a required preliminary to a lawsuit. The issues arose after an author quoted the two teachers involved from a conference "about how to run an LGBTQ+ club in a conservative community," the report said. Konen reported being informed only during a meeting in 2019 when her daughter was in the 7th grade, and she was summoned to a meeting at the principal's office at Buena Vista Middle School.
