New Richmond Parents for Strong Schools v. New Richmond School District
Case Overview
Meet The Client
The New Richmond School District has a policy allowing boys to use the girl’s bathroom based on a students personal feeling of “gender identity.” The policy has resulted in at least one male being frequently present in the girls’ bathrooms with girls, causing anxiety, stress, and an invasion of personal privacy for the girls.
We are seeking a declaration that Defendant’s actions and practices violate Plaintiff’s rights under Title IX by forcing their children to be denied an equal opportunity in their education; a declaration that Defendant’s actions and practices violate Plaintiff’s constitutional rights under the 14th Amendment which prohibits sex discrimination; as well as a permanent injunction enjoining the District Defendants’ policy and ordering Defendants to permit only females to enter and use the District’s girls’ private facilities and only males enter and use the boys’ private facilities.
