US EditionU.S. Department of Education Says Colorado School District in Violation of Title IX over Transgender Policies
Jeffco must rescind policies letting transgender students access girls' facilities and sports, with 61 male positions on girls' teams noted by the U.S. Department of Education.
- The U.S. Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights found Jeffco Public Schools violated Title IX by allowing transgender students in girls' sports and facilities and ordered policy reversal on Friday or 'risk imminent enforcement'.
- A 2024 family lawsuit and a June report prompted OCR's probe of Jeffco, which expanded after complaints about overnight sleeping arrangements and lasted nearly nine months.
- Investigators cited athletic rosters showing 61 roster positions occupied by male students and disturbing reports from parents of an 11-year-old about shared beds and intimate shower arrangements.
- The OCR gave the district 10 days to accept the resolution requiring biology-based definitions of sex, policy revisions, and a public Title IX compliance statement or risk enforcement action.
- The action is part of a nationwide shift as OCR conducts at least 18 similar Title IX investigations, intensifying clashes with the Colorado Anti-Discrimination Act and ongoing Supreme Court litigation.
