A group of four Wisconsin high school girls have sent a letter to their school districts claiming that the district’s policy allowing a transgender “girl” to shower with them violated their right to privacy.
The attorneys also allege that the school violated its own rules for reporting such cases.
“Under federal law, the incident should have been reported to the Title IX coordinator, who should have then contacted the girls, offered supportive measures, and provided them an opportunity to file a complaint,” they wrote. “Supportive measures might have included accommodations to maintain their access to education and adequate privacy in the locker room at least while a Title IX investigation was pending,” the letter continued. “No one from the District contacted any of the girls’ parents at that time, and no one investigated. To be clear, that means that the district’s initial response to this incident violated Title IX.
For its part, the district has refused to comment on the matter other than to say that state law prevents them from discussing issues with students, but it also claims that its rules for student safety follow the law. The district also alleged that the letter “provides neither an accurate nor complete account of the events that occurred.”
