The Target Corporation has been partnering with a group pushing policies to keep a child’s gender transition undisclosed from parents and teach gender ideology at all grade levels.

The group, the Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network (GLSEN), believes gender ideology should be incorporated in all educational content and core subjects, listing a series of instructions on how to make transgender ideology apart of all aspects of the education system, according to its website. It instructs school districts to ensure all students’ “medical information relating to transgender and nonbinary students is kept confidential” and must be kept in the dark from parents and guardians.

“[The local education agency] shall ensure that all personally identifiable and medical information relating to transgender and nonbinary students is kept confidential… Staff or educators shall not disclose any information that may reveal a student’s gender identity to others, including parents or guardian… This disclosure must be discussed with the student, prior to any action,” the group’s instruction reads.

The group’s also instructs educators on how to make math, science, and other core subjects “more inclusive of trans and non-binary identities” by “highlight[ing] diversity in names, gender, and family structure, including the use of “they/them” pronouns in word problems.

It also said teachers should intervene when students make graphs about biological sex but do not include gender identity, intersex and other options, according to a GLSEN blog on how to make “math class more inclusive.” (RELATED: ‘Great Thing For Our Brand’: Target CEO Goes Out On A Limb For Trans-Friendly Clothes As Bud Light Gets Nuked) 

“When students are creating their own surveys, if they want to include data for biological sex, teachers need to be sure they include both intersex and other as choices and if the students want to include data for gender, a variety of choices need to be included, such as agender, genderfluid, female, male, nonbinary, transman, transwoman, and other,” the blog read.

Target has donated at least $2.1 million to the pro-trans organization, Fox reported. The company’s own press releases show that it donated $100,000 to the organization in June 2020. Another $100,000 donation in 2021 brought the total to nearly $2 million, according to the corporate website. They also partnered to produce a “Documentary Featuring Students, Educators, Volunteers Who Have Improved School Climate for LGBT Youth.”

The corporate giant came under scrutiny after displaying its “Pride Month” children’s products in stores, which included “tuck-friendly” swimsuits for boys identifying as girls. (RELATED: Watch “Damaged: The Transing of America’s Kids”)

The products also included onesies with rainbow, transgender themed hearts, while the children’s products feature drag queens and rainbows. The store is also LGBTQ-themed selling books titled, “Bye-Bye Binary” about a baby who does not fit “in a pink or blue corner” and “What Are Your Words,” a book that instructs children on how to use preferred pronouns. Some stores have removed the items following the backlash.

Schools across the country have kept parents and guardians in the dark about their children’s gender identities and transitions. One district in Colorado planned to incorporate a system that hides the children’s gender identity from parents, Fox News reported. A Christian teacher in California lost her job after refusing to comply with its gender guidelines.

Readers,

Instead of sucking up to the political and corporate powers that dominate America, The Daily Caller is fighting for you — our readers. We humbly ask you to consider joining us in this fight.

Now that millions of readers are rejecting the increasingly biased and even corrupt corporate media and joining us daily, there are powerful forces lined up to stop us: the old guard of the news media hopes to marginalize us; the big corporate ad agencies want to deprive us of revenue and put us out of business; senators threaten to have our reporters arrested for asking simple questions; the big tech platforms want to limit our ability to communicate with you; and the political party establishments feel threatened by our independence.

We don't complain -- we can't stand complainers -- but we do call it how we see it. We have a fight on our hands, and it's intense. We need your help to smash through the big tech, big media and big government blockade.

We're the insurgent outsiders for a reason: our deep-dive investigations hold the powerful to account. Our original videos undermine their narratives on a daily basis. Even our insistence on having fun infuriates them -- because we won’t bend the knee to political correctness.

One reason we stand apart is because we are not afraid to say we love America. We love her with every fiber of our being, and we think she's worth saving from today’s craziness.

Help us save her.

A second reason we stand out is the sheer number of honest responsible reporters we have helped train. We have trained so many solid reporters that they now hold prominent positions at publications across the political spectrum. Hear a rare reasonable voice at a place like CNN? There’s a good chance they were trained at Daily Caller. Same goes for the numerous Daily Caller alumni dominating the news coverage at outlets such as Fox News, Newsmax, Daily Wire and many others.

Simply put, America needs solid reporters fighting to tell the truth or we will never have honest elections or a fair system. We are working tirelessly to make that happen and we are making a difference.

Since 2010, The Daily Caller has grown immensely. We're in the halls of Congress. We're in the Oval Office. And we're in up to 20 million homes every single month. That's 20 million Americans like you who are impossible to ignore.

We can overcome the forces lined up against all of us. This is an important mission but we can’t do it unless you — the everyday Americans forgotten by the establishment — have our back.

Please consider becoming a Daily Caller Patriot today, and help us keep doing work that holds politicians, corporations and other leaders accountable. Help us thumb our noses at political correctness. Help us train a new generation of news reporters who will actually tell the truth. And help us remind Americans everywhere that there are millions of us who remain clear-eyed about our country's greatness.

In return for membership, Daily Caller Patriots will be able to read The Daily Caller without any of the ads that we have long used to support our mission. We know the ads drive you crazy. They drive us crazy too. But we need revenue to keep the fight going. If you join us, we will cut out the ads for you and put every Lincoln-headed cent we earn into amplifying our voice, training even more solid reporters, and giving you the ad-free experience and lightning fast website you deserve.

Patriots will also be eligible for Patriots Only content, newsletters, chats and live events with our reporters and editors. It's simple: welcome us into your lives, and we'll welcome you into ours.

We can save America together.

Become a Daily Caller Patriot today.
