Summary
OCR opened an investigation into Washington's Tumwater School District for permitting a transgender girl to compete in a girls' basketball game under Washington Interscholastic Activities Association policy, and for allegedly investigating for harassment a 15-year-old opposing player who objected. The case previewed OCR's coupling of athletics enforcement with claims that discipline of anti-trans student speech itself violates civil-rights law.
