Dept. Of Ed Says Oklahoma District Attended by Nex Benedict Violated Title IX Rules
Description
The Department of Education's Office of Civil Rights announced Wednesday that it had come to a resolution with the Oklahoma school district where nonbinary student Nex Benedict attended before their death in February. Owasso Public School District has entered into a resolution agreement with the enforcement branch of the federal education agency that requires it to take specific actions related to the implementation of Title IX, such as meeting with Benedict’s mother and explaining how to file a Title IX complaint. The letter found the school district “generally failed to fulfill its Title IX obligations during the 2021–2022, 2022–2023, and 2023– 2024 school years” by investigating sexual harassment outside the Title IX process and procedures.
