During a recent government meeting, Glenn Lopeman, a pastor from Oxford Township, raised critical questions regarding Title IX policies in local schools, specifically addressing the use of bathrooms by transgender students. Lopeman inquired whether the Oxford school district has a written policy concerning boys using girls' restrooms and sought clarification on the school board's stance regarding two significant court rulings.

The first ruling, from the Supreme Court, places a stay on the use of girls' bathrooms by boys, while the second involves a lawsuit from the group Moms for Liberty, which has halted any changes to Title IX regulations that could affect this issue. Lopeman emphasized that the Oxford schools are included in the lawsuit and questioned whether the school board intends to comply with these rulings.

Additionally, he asked if the board plans to hold a vote on the matter, referencing a prior conversation he had with Principal Canada about a specific incident involving a boy using the girls' bathroom. Lopeman's comments highlight ongoing tensions and concerns surrounding gender identity policies in schools, reflecting broader national debates on the subject. The school board's response to these inquiries remains to be seen, as the community awaits clarity on how these legal decisions will influence local policy.
