Bonta- Why the "shadow docket" made this ruling controversial- How parental rights are protected under the Constitution- What the safety carve-out means for at-risk children- How this ruling changes school counseling and administration- What's next as the case continues in the Ninth CircuitOn March 2, 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court voted 6-3 to reinstate a block on California's policies prohibiting schools from notifying parents about a child's gender identity without the child's consent. The Court found parents are likely to succeed on First and Fourteenth Amendment grounds, reaffirming their constitutional right to direct their children's upbringing. Critically, the ruling preserves child-abuse protections where disclosure could endanger a child. This is an interlocutory order, not a final decision, meaning the legal battle continues in the Ninth Circuit. Schools, advocacy groups, and courts nationwide are watching closely as this rapidly evolving area of constitutional law heads toward a landmark final ruling.Learn more about Mirabelli v.
