Department of Education to investigate five Northern Virginia school districts for Title IX violations against female students. The school districts allow students to use locker rooms and bathrooms based on gender identity and not biological sex. What that does is it allows a boy, for example, to go use a female restroom, and if the female has an issue with that, then she's the one that has to go use the private restroom. Well under Title IX, that's discrimination on the basis of sex. And these schools and the agencies and departments that regulate them are now back to the old Title IX rules before Joe Biden and his administration pushed this radical Title IX rule that has been nationally enjoined.
So we're asking the Department of Education to take a look at those schools. They've been certainly the worst offenders locally, and we'll see what happens.
Prior said that if the U. Department of Education finds the school districts in violation of Title IX, the school systems could risk their federal funding.
That's going to be a very tough sell. At a recent Arlington School Board meeting, several parents and residents asked school board members to rescind their transgender bathroom and locker room policy. We also need protection from all males.
Currently, APS policy allows boys and men access to women's locker rooms if they are transgender. Annie Quinn told the school board that as a mother of three former APS graduates at Washington Liberty High School, she was grateful that her daughter graduated before the transgender locker room and bathroom policy was adopted by the school board. On Thursday, some Arlington residents asked the Arlington School Board to stand by its policy that allows people to use APS locker rooms and bathrooms based on their gender identity and not biological sex.
