A board meeting at the Riverside Unified School District was preceded by protests for and against transgender inclusion amid an ongoing lawsuit.
The Riverside Unified School District in California hosted a board meeting Thursday amid a controversy over a transgender cross country runner at Martin Luther King High School and students being reprimanded for protesting the athlete's participation. The board meeting will address recent allegations in a lawsuit that school administrators compared 'Save Girls' Sports' T-shirts to swastikas.
Sources have told Fox News officials at nearby Arlington High School, Riverside Polytechnical High School and Romona High School have also seen students wearing them. In a statement previously provided to Fox News Digital, RUSD said it has allowed the transgender athlete to compete on the team because it must comply with California state law.
