A Christian school banned from athletic competition in Vermont because its girls' basketball team refused to play another with a male has settled its lawsuit with one defendant while broader litigation continues against others.
The Vermont Principals' Association, which oversees all state-sponsored extracurriculars in the Green Mountain State, agreed to pay $566,000 in damages and attorney's fees to resolve Mid Vermont Christian School's claims, the latter's lawyers at the Alliance Defending Freedom said Wednesday.

"For more than two years, state officials denied Mid Vermont Christian School a public benefit available to all other schools in Vermont just because it stood by the widely held, biblical belief that boys and girls are different," ADF Senior Counsel David Cortman said.

Too bad you have to go to court to stop this idiocy.
Vermont pushed the boundaries and hopefully they lose again.
From the article:
“”The suit continues against Vermont Agency of Education Secretary Zoie Saunders, State Board of Education Chair Jennifer Samuelson and Waits River Valley School Board, because they have “yet again excluded all religious schools, including Mid Vermont, and their students from participating in the state’s tuition program and other public benefit programs,” ADF said.””
Let the attorney fees and the ultimate settlement amount rack up. It’s Virginia that’s going to end up paying.
I wish it was 5.66 billion !!
And why should TAXpayers pay for the normal activities of your middle of the road demonrat
Wokeism is expensive
