Ohio School Official Has ‘Go With the Flow’ Approach to Skirting Transgender Laws
September 30, 2025
A Springfield, Ohio, school official advises that parents of transgender students “go with the flow” when it comes to keeping their child’s biological sex under wraps.
Secretary and EMIS/Registrar of the Springfield City School District, Kelly Cromlish, was visited by Accuracy in Media’s investigators—and she revealed what’s really happening.
“In my opinion, if we’re enrolling as a female, she plays sports as a female,” she said on hidden camera about a supposed prospective transgender student.
So I would assume you just go with the flow,” she advised who she believed to be parents of the prospective transgender student.
Cromlish continued to encourage the investigators to keep the student’s status as transgender secret, using their “discretion.”
She even revealed on hidden camera, “truthfully there is some transgender kids that no one knows is transgender because it was never brought up that way,” referring to the student’s registration for school.
Cromlish went as far as to suggest that not keeping a student’s transgender status a secret would be “discrimination” against them and a violation of the family’s privacy and discretion.
Last year, Ohio passed laws banning biological males from female sports in K-12 and college and requiring students to use facilities — such as bathrooms and locker rooms — that align with their biological sex.
But school employees have taken it upon themselves to help transgender students and their parents skirt these policies, violating the privacy of other students and putting them at risk.
When they think no one is watching, Ohio schools will do whatever it takes to cater to transgender ideology, even if it hurts other students.
