Dallas Express on AIM investigation: Boys May Now Room with Girls on Richardson ISD Field Trips
January 20, 2025
A newly released investigation has uncovered that a Dallas-area school district may be allowing biological boys to room with girls on school field trips.
The investigation by Accuracy in Media shows Richardson ISD’s Executive Director of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion Angie Lee advising an undercover journalist on the district’s policy on biological boys staying with girls.
When asked whether a gender-confused boy would be able to stay with the girls if he were to travel with the school, Lee said it’s a “case-by-case” scenario. She did reveal, however, that there have been instances in which a biological boy has stayed with girls.
“It’s case-by-case. But I think that there’s been times when that has been worked out,” Lee said. “I’m just going on the cases I know about … but the other students who were in the room, they were all friends, and so they knew and the parents were okay with it.”
Lee also told the undercover journalist that some parents who don’t have full custody of their children don’t have to sign off on allowing a boy to room with girls.
“Sometimes you have one parent who is against it, but then that parent, it depends on the custodial agreement, too. Like, you know, is it joint custody or is this is the custodial parent with all the education rights,” Lee explained.
