Parents in Loudoun County Virginia are suing the school board. You may recall that the latest in the Loudoun County school district, boys in the locker room were filmed by a girl who claimed to be a boy, complaining about the policy.
The boys of course were vilified while the girl, to the best that I can find, received no repercussions for filming them in a private space.
According to the Washington Examiner, lawyers for the boys and their families have amended their complaint to charge district officials with “civil conspiracy,”
The school allegedly used the confidential information it had about the situation to give to an organization called Loudoun For All for the purpose of “stoking political outrage ahead of local elections,” the report said.
The materials included press releases and a case timeline, and the new filing explains the details were leaked “to assist in issuing statements labeling the families liars,” the report said.
The information, containing “false and defamatory allegations,” soon appeared on the PAC’s website.
“It appears the school board was passing along confidential information to a political action committee for the purpose of further retaliating against our clients,” explained Ian Prior, a lawyer with America First Legal, which is working the Founding Freedoms Law Center to help the families.
What’s even better is that some high school students are getting out there and are getting involved.
As early voting is underway, some teens are greeting Loudoun County voters at the polls and asking them to choose school board candidates who would restore girl only and boy only bathrooms and locker rooms in Loudoun County Public Schools.
I hope that good sense finally prevails and the fact that the students who are directly affected by the school board’s unlawful policy is a good sign. And then I hope the families sue the board members personally.
