The Vermont Principals’ Association is $566,000 poorer for the way it treated Mid Vermont Christian School when the school protested having its girls teams play against a transgender opponent.
Three years ago, the Christian school forfeited a basketball game rather than play a team with a male who said he was female. The Vermont Principals’ Association banned the school from playing in state athletic events.
A federal appeals court ruled in September that the VPA could not ban the school, leading to the $566,000 settlement, according to WCAX-TV.
As part of the settlement, the VPA promised it would not enact a similar ban in the future.
This is the way. It’s the only thing they understand. Hit them in the wallet.
