After suicide of nonbinary teen, DOE finds multiple Title IX violations at Oklahoma school district
After suicide of nonbinary teen, DOE finds multiple Title IX violations at Oklahoma school district
After the suicide of a nonbinary student last February spurred a monthslong federal investigation, the US Department of Education found Title IX violations in an Oklahoma public school district including multiple failures to respond to notices of sexual harassment.
The DOE’s Office of Civil Rights announced a resolution Wednesday with the Owasso Public School District to remedy Title IX violations linked to sexual harassment in district schools.
The investigation found a pattern of inconsistent district responses to sexual harassment complaints that were, at times, “deliberately indifferent to students’ civil rights.”
Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 protects people from discrimination based on sex in federally funded education programs.

This is a problem that will "resolve" itself soon. Oklahoma is already making plans for the DOE to be disbanded under the new regime. They won't have to file sexual harassment reports anymore.
No report=no problem, isn't that how it works?
