Supporting Information & Documentation to FWISD Office of Legal Services

March 13, 2020, Mr. McCulloch submitted documentation that was compiled over the academic year to justification the addition of rugby as a girls varsity sport in FWISD.  Unfortunately, the District was hit by a ransomware virus that week so a hard copy was delivered to Legal Services and copies were emailed to the Trustees and key administrators.  Over course COVID-19 hit the United States closing down schools for a protracted period of time.  Regardless, FWISD has had four years to correct its Title IX deficiency in athletics so we expect to see a 2020-2021 operational budget that demonstrates corrective action being taken.

Below is the information sheet that accompanied the submitted documentation such as female player signup sheets for a number of high schools.  For privacy, the contact information has been blacked out and the signup sheets are not provided here.  Since equitable use of facilities is a Title IX concern, documentation was submitted illustrating some samples of unfair treatment.
