Loudoun County Public Schools (LCPS) in Virginia suspended two male high school students after they expressed discomfort about a female student using the boys’ locker room and recording a video inside.
The district had opened an investigation months earlier after three male students raised complaints regarding the student’s presence.
The female student, who reportedly identifies as male, allegedly entered the boys’ locker room multiple times and filmed inside to capture “the reaction of male students.”
The two boys are facing discipline for sexual harassment and sex-based discrimination related to their complaints.
As part of the disciplinary measures, they are required to meet with school administrators to develop a corrective action plan, serve 10-day suspensions and adhere to a no-contact order with the female student, preventing them from attending the same classes.
One of the boys has reportedly left the state with his family, according to The Daily Caller.
LCPS maintains a policy allowing students to use facilities based on “gender identity,” which the district reaffirmed despite threats from the Trump administration to revoke federal funding.
The Department of Education had previously found LCPS in violation of civil rights law for failing to adequately protect students’ rights.
The female student who filmed in the boys’ locker room reportedly faces no disciplinary action and continues to have access to boys’ facilities.
Republican leaders criticized the school system’s handling of the suspensions.
Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares said LCPS “weaponized Title IX to punish male students for expressing discomfort at being forced to share a locker room with a female student” and called the disciplinary measures “completely unjustified.”
Gov. Glenn Youngkin described the actions as “a disturbing misuse of authority,” while Republican gubernatorial candidate Winsome Earle-Sears added, “Loudoun County Public Schools have not only failed these two boys, but they have failed all parents and students,” noting that her Democratic opponent, Abigail Spanberger, has not commented.
LCPS has faced scrutiny in previous years.
In 2021, a trans-identifying male student allegedly assaulted a female student in the girls’ restroom, which prompted protests and student walkouts.
The district also reportedly considered a Title IX investigation against a third male student, which was later dropped amid speculation that he was Muslim, RedState reports.
Officials said the alleged conduct “would not constitute sexual harassment” even if proven, citing inconsistencies with LCPS policy and prior Department of Education guidance.
The legal debate surrounding these cases relates to West Virginia v. B.P.J., a “trans” rights case expected before the Supreme Court in 2026.
The ruling will determine whether Title IX and the 14th Amendment allow separating sports teams and facilities by biological sex, with potential implications for policies in Loudoun County and other school districts nationwide, according to TDC.
LCPS recently announced it will challenge federal pressure from the Trump administration to enforce sex-specific facility use, joining other Northern Virginia school systems in opposition.
Ian Prior, a Loudoun County resident and senior advisor at America First Legal, said the district’s actions “guarantee that the Supreme Court decisively ends these insane interpretations of Title IX and the equal protection clause.”
The case raises questions about students’ rights to privacy and safety in schools, particularly when policies on “gender identity” intersect with traditional facility use.
Legal observers say outcomes here could influence how districts protect students’ rights in similar situations nationwide.
