When I was in first grade I wanted to be a rabbit. Should I have been allowed to transition. If a full grown adult wants to dress silly and deform their own body, fine, go ahead. But to allow a first grader to "transition" is absurd and that child's parents should be investigated.
For chrissakes, are we losing our minds? We don't let first graders choose their own meals, otherwise they'd only eat ice cream and candy. But we're going to allow them to change their sex? They can't drink, smoke, drive or vote but they can get their genitals mauled on their own choosing? WTF is going on. This is nuts.

Do they have their child undergo surgery to add butterfly wings to their child? Do they do hormone therapy on a child to turn them into a superman?

I think the word "transition" here has a very definite meaning. Also, I don't think anyone was ever punished in school for refusing to refer to a classmate by "Batman". Third, I don't think the school would allow a kid to be dressed as Batman all day in school except maybe during a Halloween celebration.
Assuming you are correct, when did we start treating children's phases as political issues?

There is no sane reason this child should have been brought to the principles office.
The insanity of a school system that insists on children calling a child they've known as a certain gender, something different overnight , is beyond reasonable .
Geez... I abhore where public education is going , and so grateful I do not have children in the system.
