The Department of Education is investigating the Sun Prairie Area School District in Wisconsin after an 18-year-old transgender student allegedly showered with high school girls, prompting a Title IX investigation by the Office of Civil Rights.
The school district has been accused of inadequately addressing the privacy violation, with claims that the transgender student exposed himself to the girls.
“He was initially turned towards the wall but eventually turned and fully exposed his male genitalia to the four girls,” the letter read. (Trending: Ousted Democrat Who Filmed Explicit Tape Blames Homophobia)
The district disputes these allegations and cites student confidentiality laws.
The incident has sparked calls for transparency and compliance with federal laws like Title IX from the Wisconsin Institute for Law & Liberty.
“The Office for Civil Rights can confirm that there is an open investigation of Sun Prairie School District under Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972. We do not comment on ongoing investigations. To learn how OCR processes cases, please see our case processing manual,” and education spokesperson said.
“We have already communicated as much as we can concerning that incident due to student confidentiality laws. As a reminder, the District has dedicated a webpage to this topic,” director of communications & engagement Patricia Lux stated.
“The School Board has been fully informed of the incident during a Closed Session on May 1, 2023, has been briefed by the District’s attorney, and is aware of the District’s community response,” the statement read.
“The Sun Prairie Area School District does not condone any student of one sex being present in a state of undress in the presence of students of another sex on school property. The District does not condone a student of one sex showering in the presence of students of another sex.”
“What happened in this incident was not in line with our District’s practices.”
Cory Brewer, WILL Associate Counsel, said that “parents and students should be able to feel confident that their school is complying with federal laws like Title IX, but right now in Sun Prairie parents do not have that confidence.”
Dan Lennington, WILL Deputy Counsel, wrote, “By no means is what happened in Wisconsin an isolated incident.”
“When schools fail to act in accordance with the law and either ignore or disregard their own policies, parents have a right to fight back. Now it’s imperative that the Biden Administration conducts a thorough investigation and provides transparency and peace of mind to Sun Prairie parents.”
