A controversial rule adopted last month to accommodate transgender students in Bellevue Public Schools will remain in force, the school board decided Monday.
Board members refused to rescind the rule despite facing an unruly crowd of parents critical of the policy.
About 150 people attended the board meeting. Some of them supported the rule, which was adopted by the district’s administration Oct. 5, without a vote of the board.
Board members said that to withdraw the rule now would make the district vulnerable to legal action.
