A California school suspended two kids for five days after they “misgendered” a transgender teacher and forced them to attend a “restorative justice” training as punishment, according to an email obtained by GUSD Parents’ Voices, an organization advocating for students within the school system.
Jennifer Earl, former principal of Herbert Hoover High School, a school within Glendale Unified School District, wrote in a May 2022 email that she had suspended two students for five days each after they entered a classroom, called a transgender teacher by the wrong name and then ran away after being corrected, according to an email obtained by GUSD Parents’ Voices. The principal noted that after interviewing the students they admitted to being “curious about a transgender person.”
“I asked [the] teacher how he wanted to handle it, if he wanted me to just teach them about misgendering or would he like me to speak about being trans,” the email stated. “He asked me to educate on transgender. It was well received from students and parents. [Restorative justice] will happen after suspension.”
Glendale Unified School District implements “restorative practices” within the classroom and the community by “reducing, preventing and improving harmful behavior” as well as “resolving conflict, holding individuals and groups accountable,” the district website states. In 2018, the district established a “Restorative Practices Advisory Task Force” with the purpose of providing “input for implementing Restorative Practices throughout the district.”
“A student has never been punished, much less suspended, for accidentally using the wrong pronoun to refer to a peer or staff member,” a district spokesperson told Fox News Digital regarding the email. “However, a student could be suspended if the action escalated to harassment or bullying.”
In June, at least three people were arrested outside a Glendale Unified School Board meeting which discussed whether or not to include curriculum focused on gender identity and sexual orientation for students. At the meeting, Vivian Ekchian, the school district superintendent, said that the “primary focus” of the school district was to be “inclusive.”
Glendale Unified School District and Herbert Hoover High School did not immediately respond to the Daily Caller News Foundation’s request for comment.

Why One Survival Food Company Shines Above the Rest
Let’s be real. “Prepper Food” or “Survival Food” is generally awful. The vast majority of companies that push their cans, bags, or buckets desperately hope that their customers never try them and stick them in the closet or pantry instead. Why? Because if the first time they try them is after the crap hits the fan, they’ll be too shaken to call and complain about the quality.
It’s true. Most long-term storage food is made with the cheapest possible ingredients with limited taste and even less nutritional value. This is why they tout calories so much. Sure, they provide calories but does anyone really want to go into the apocalypse with food their family can’t stand?
This is what prompted the Llewellyns to launch Heaven’s Harvest. They bought survival food from multiple companies and determined they couldn’t imagine being stuck in an extended emergency with such low-quality food. They quickly discovered that freeze drying food for long-term storage doesn’t have to mean sacrificing flavor, consistency, or nutrition.
Their ingredients are all-American. In fact, they’re locally sourced and all-natural! This allows their products to be the highest quality on the market, so good that their customers often break open a bag in a pinch to eat because they want to, not just because they have to due to an emergency.
At Heaven’s Harvest, their only focus is amazing food. They don’t sell bugout bags, solar chargers, or multitools. They have one mission – feeding Americans in times of crisis.
What they DO offer is the ability for people to thrive in times of greatest need. On top of long-term storage food, they offer seeds to help Americans for the truly long-term. They want them to grow their own food if possible which is why they offer only Heirloom, Non-GMO, Non-Hybrid, Open-Pollinated seeds so their customers can build permanent food security on their own property.
