Press Release: Title IX Special Investigations Team Launches Directed Investigation into Washington State Superintendent's Office
The Investigation Comes Amid Reports that Washington State Policies Conflict with Title IX, FERPA, and PPRA“Multiple Washington state school districts report OSPI is requiring school boards to adopt policies that allow males to participate in female sports and occupy female-only intimate facilities.”
Today, the Title IX Special Investigations Team (Title IX SIT), a joint initiative of the U.S. Department of Education (ED) and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ), launched a directed investigation into the Washington Office of the Superintendent of Public Instruction (OSPI). This investigation comes amid reports that OSPI has imposed requirements on school districts that potentially violate federal law, specifically, Title IX, the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA), and the Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment (PPRA).
Multiple Washington State school districts have reported that OSPI is requiring school boards to adopt policies that allow males to participate in female sports and occupy female-only intimate facilities, thereby raising substantial Title IX concerns.
