Parents blasted a Pennsylvania school district and continued to demand answers on Monday night after the revelation that it allowed students to be surveyed by a “genderqueer witch” on sexual topics without parental permission.
The parents’ comments came during the meeting of the Unionville-Chadds Ford School District school board and after The Daily Wire reported that Unionville High School had brought in a “genderqueer witch,” known as Deni Tobin, to speak to high school freshmen about the issue of dating violence last year. When parents first asked about Tobin’s presentation, they were accused of spreading misinformation.
“I’m here tonight to speak about a troubling pattern of misconduct in the school district that undermines the sanctity of parental rights,” local parent and lawyer Chad Williams said during public comment at the board meeting.
Williams has filed a series of public information requests about Tobin’s presentation and the sexual violence surveys that were administered to students without parental permission in addition to filing a misconduct complaint against District Superintendent John Sanville.
“In the spring of 2023, just a month after a transgender person walked into a Christian school and murdered three children and three adults because they were Christians,” Williams added. “Dr. Sanville claimed that concerns about a transgender, self-described queer witch who was teaching high school freshman about sexual topics were quote ‘unfounded’ and he accused parents of spreading misinformation.”
Williams has attempted to set up a meeting with district officials, but says he has been so far stonewalled in his efforts for full transparency around the incident.
Other parents criticized the school board during the meeting, with one accusing the district of hiding information on the presentation from parents.
“The school made significant efforts to prevent parents from finding out the truth about this event and the event went so far as to conduct personal attacks against those who had the temerity to inquire about the survey,” a mother named Fabiana said.

A father named Erik said that his child was handed materials from Planned Parenthood during Tobin’s presentation, something the district has denied. Videos from the group that Tobin was brought in with, the Chester County Crime Victims Center, show Tobin presenting Planned Parenthood’s FRIES (Freely Given, Reversible, Informed, Enthusiastic, and Specific) sexual consent acronym.
“I don’t want my kid receiving Planned Parenthood information in the public school that I pay for,” he said. “And for you to look at me and say ‘Oh, it’s fake news, you’re falling for fake news, this is misinformation, you’re peddling misinformation.’ It’s wrong.”
Multiple parents also made reference to the district superintendent’s wife commenting “fake news” on a post from the Chester County Republican Party sharing The Daily Wire article detailing parental concerns about the dating violence presentation.
Unionville High Principal Amy Jenkins sent Williams an email on Tuesday asking to confirm a day for a meeting with him, but did not confirm whether other school board officials would be in attendance as requested.
The district conducted an investigation and determined that policy had not been followed when Tobin had distributed the sex-themed surveys to the students. The surveys asked students about their gender identity and whether they had ever “pressured” someone into a sexual act or whether someone had pressured them to do something sexual.
