Title IX Dispute: Legal Action Filed Against Maine School District Regarding Transgender Student-Athlete Participation

A lawsuit has been filed against a Maine school district over its decision to restrict transgender student-athletes from participating in girls’ and women’s sports. The case centers around a 2020 incident where a transgender athlete, who was previously known as Nicole, had participated in the pole vault event at Greely High School.

The lawsuit, brought by the parents of a biological female athlete, alleges that allowing transgender student-athletes to compete in girls’ and women’s sports is discriminatory and harmful to those athletes.
