The U.S. Department of Education is charging that five public school divisions in Northern Virginia are violating federal law by continuing to allow boys who identify as “transgender” girls in girls locker rooms, bathrooms, and school sports.
Gov. Glenn Youngkin announced that the department’s Office for Civil Rights has determined that the gender policies of the Fairfax County, Loudoun County, Arlington County, Prince William County, and City of Alexandria school divisions are violating federal Title IX law.
In reporting the DOE ruling, Youngkin said, “Common sense is back, with biological boys and girls in their own locker rooms and bathrooms and boys out of girls sports.”
The DOE has proposed a resolution agreement where the divisions would rescind their policies and issue a memorandum to each division school that any future policies must be consistent with Title IX and adopt biology-based definitions of the words “male” and “female.”
If the divisions don’t agree to these actions within 10 days, they risk referral to the U.S. Department of Justice.
