You know, get to know your school.
How punitive is this school?
Also look at
Title IX.
So I think a lot of us learned, you know, especially those of us who focus on girls and women's issues, we learned about Title IX kind of in the context of you know women and girls being able to equally participate in sports, right, at public schools.
It's so way beyond that.
Title IX also applies to sexual harassment at school.
And we haven't even really talked about the girl subculture that goes on here.
So girls of color, especially, are being
hugely disproportionately pushed out of schools and and a lot of it is around sexual harassment.
So for example, a girl being sent home from school for a dress code, quote unquote, violation because a boy was harassing her.
So there's like a rape culture thing going on in a lot of schools, um, you know, where like
sent home for wearing short shorts, so she's getting disconnected from her education.
Версус фокусин why is there sexual harassment happening at the school?
And under Title IX, you have to.
So that's one area where the law is on our side.
You have to prevent sexual harassment.
You have to deal with the effects of it when it happens.
And you have to take steps to prevent it from happening in the future.
So I think parents kind of knowing their rights around what are the policies of the school and is this school in alignment with federal policy to protect the rights of students, right?
