Jessica Tapia Appearing July 20th

Jessica Tapia Appearing July 20th

In 2023 Jessica Tapia was fired from her tenure position as an instructor in the Jarupa United School District for refusing to lie to the parents of her students regarding their “preferred pronouns”. Mrs. Tapia is seeking an unspecified amount of money plus attorneys’ fees and a declaratory judgment that the district’s directives are unconstitutional in a Federal lawsuit.

When Tapia was working at the Mira Loma Middle School and had a good relationship with the principal and other staff.  But two days after the end of the 2021 – 22 school year, Tapia’s career came crashing down when she received disturbing messages and comments on her personal Instagram page from alleged Jurupa Valley High School students.

When she went to work the next day, the suit contended, Tapia was told she had to meet with Assistant Superintendent of Human Resources Daniel Brooks, who told her that the district was aware of her social media posts and she would be put on administrative leave.

‘The District claimed, as allegedly supported by students, that Ms. Tapia’s social media posts were racist, offensive, disrespectful and mocking towards individuals based upon their sexual orientation,’ the lawsuit explained.

Lawyers for Tapia, however, argue that is a ‘mischaracterization’ of who Tapia is, noting that her faith requires her to love ‘all people, regardless of sexual orientation, race or gender. ‘But her faith precludes her from endorsing policies that cause her to reject her faith, such as facilitating a student’s gender transition or withholding information about it from the student’s parents,’ it says.

The suit explained as a devout Christian, Tapia believes God defines human sexuality, and that men and women are created in God’s image. She also believes lying in any form is inconsistent with the Bible’s teachings, and has expressed that belief on social media.
