SHARING IS NOT PERMITTED? Storage shed built at no cost to the school district torn down. Because Title IX.
[O]fficials with the Clark County School District showed up at the school and demanded that the storage shed be torn down. They said it violated Title IX.

Title IX states: “No person in the United States shall, on the basis of sex, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any education program or activity receiving Federal financial assistance.”

In other words, for every boy sport there must be a girls alternative.

And in the case of Arbor View High School – if the boys have a storage shed – the girls must have a storage shed.

“It requires that we have equal facilities for boys programs and girls programs,” [according to] district spokesman Joe Murphy.

It doesn’t seem to matter one iota that the girls softball team never asked for a storage shed.

“The girls aren’t complaining.... It’s totally coming from the school district.”

You’ve probably turned to your significant other and wondered aloud, “Those administrators are morons. There’s no reasonable way a storage shed could violate Title IX.”

But we’re not dealing with reasonable people here, folks. We’re dealing with public school administrators.
The moron quotient is strong in this district.
