SB 937 prohibits Tennessee public schools, school districts (LEAs), and their staff from requiring students, teachers, employees, or contractors to provide or use preferred pronouns. It allows schools to use a person’s legal name or pronouns consistent with their sex, and requires parental consent before using a non-sex-consistent name/pronoun for minor students. The law creates a private right to sue schools for violations, such as forcing pronoun use or disciplining someone for refusing, with claims needing to be filed within two years. This law directly affects all public school students and staff in Tennessee and takes effect May 9, 2025.
