[READ ALSO: #Chile Deputies approved gender identity law: it's law] Aliaga's case came to light after the Municipal Education Department (DEM) denied her request, citing a lack of records for the teenager's admission to the school. The student alleges she suffered discrimination at the Manuel Barros Borgoño High School, which canceled her enrollment, and expressed her desire to attend the prestigious Liceo 1. The mayor of Santiago, Felipe Alessandri, announced on February 28 that a special admissions process had been initiated to allow the student to enroll.
