The school activity at issue occurred in the context of the buddy program, a weekly class pairing younger and older students.

The school sent parents a weekly newsletter listing the books the students were reading each week .

For the buddy class at issue, the book entitled My Shadow Is Pink was selected by the teachers and was not listed in the school's weekly newsletter.

P.D. and S.E. were each paired with a kindergartener.

California law prohibits excluding educational materials due to covering the marginalized groups, mandates that these groups be accurately reflected in educational materials.

The court granted a preliminary injunction ordering that, as "to the Encinitas Union School District elementary school buddy program," "buddy program activities and materials shall not cover gender identity topics covered in health instruction".
