A school board in Oregon will decide whether to fire two educators at a middle school who were placed on leave after producing a video proposing that schools recognize a student’s biological sex, not his or her gender identity.

Science teacher Katie Medart and assistant principal Rachel Damiano of North Middle School in Grants Pass, Oregon, filed a federal lawsuit saying the school’s disciplinary action in April violated their constitutional rights.

According to their attorneys at Pacific Justice Institute, Damiano and Medart started a grassroots organization called I Resolve on their own time and using personal accounts on online platforms.

The stated goal of I Resolve is to provide a solution in gender identity policies for students at their middle school that both satisfies teachers’ consciences and honors parental involvement.
