LGBTQ Rights in Schools

Eric Lesh, Executive Director of the LGBT Bar of NY and Professor Art Leonard of New York Law School, discuss three important cases from the January edition of LGBT Law Notes. The thread connecting the three cases is that they are all school cases involving queer students and access to equal opportunities.

• U.S. District Court Orders Indiana High School to Provide Equal Privileges to Gay-Straight Student Alliance
• Federal District Court Refuses to Dismiss Challenge to West Virginia Law Banning Trans Girls from Scholastic Athletic Competition
• U.S. District Court Rules Against Maryland School Choice Program’s Antidiscrimination Policy on Free Speech Grounds
