[quote=Anonymous]My daughter isn’t LGBT, but I am hoping to find someone with experience with preferred names in MCPS. My ex has a history of DV, including attempted kidnapping, and it is important to me that he not know where my kid goes to school. I would change her name, but MD doesn’t allow secret name changes. I want her to have a normal high school experience but I am concerned that her name will appear on an athletic roster or cast list for the play or something and be visible to google. I see that MCPS commits to using preferred names on those things if requested, and I wonder if it would be possible for her to just pick a new name. Does anyone have experience with their child using a preferred name in MCPS and if so how good a job do they do of being consistent in using the new name? [/quote]
