Trump admin investigates Portland school district over letting trans student compete in girls sports

Story by AP (25 March 2025)

PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) — The U.S. Department of Education said in a news release Tuesday that it has opened an investigation into Portland Public Schools, Oregon's largest school district, over allowing a transgender athlete to compete on a high school girls' track-and-field team.

The federal agency said it was investigating whether this violated Title IX, a 1972 law barring sex discrimination in education. The Trump administration has been using the law to push against schools that provide accommodations for transgender students.

Superintendent Kimberlee Armstrong said the district is in full compliance with Oregon state law, "which may differ from federal guidance," and that it was working to "navigate this complex legal landscape."

"I want our community to know that I am aware of the complaint filed with the U.S. Department of Education's Office for Civil Rights, and Portland Public Schools is fully cooperating with the investigation," Armstrong said in a statement.

"While I am limited in what I can share at this time due to the sensitive nature of the matter and our duty to protect student privacy, I want to be clear: my commitment — and our district's commitment — to doing what's right for all students, especially those most vulnerable, remains unwavering."

Interesting that the schools are being investigated by a government agency that is being shut down.
