NC School District Under Investigation for Bathroom Policy
Federal officials said multiple female students reported being required to change in front of males and that complaints were dismissed by school leaders.
- On Monday, the U.S. Department of Education announced a federal investigation into Cabarrus County Schools following reports the district violated Title IX by allowing male students into girls' bathrooms.
- The Trump Administration is pursuing districts that reportedly subject women and girls to "egregious violations of their privacy and safety," according to Assistant Secretary for Civil Rights Kimberly Richey, as June marks the 54th anniversary of the 1972 Education Amendments.
- Female students reported being required to undress in front of "males," while former Cox Mill High School principal Chris Myeters reportedly told students "there isn't anything can do" and suggested they "can go somewhere else."
- U.S. Rep. Addison McDowell, R-N.C., called on the Office of Civil Rights to address reports from Cox Mill High School, stating "girls should not have to share locker rooms or bathrooms with biological males."
- The Department of Education released no additional information on the ongoing probe as the administration continues to prioritize enforcement of Title IX protections for women and girls in educational spaces.
