Superintendent of Public Instruction Chris Reykdal spoke in defense of transgender athletes in girls sports.

He said it was “ inaccurate’t say, biologically, that there are only two genders.

Washington high school athletes are allowed to compete based on gender identity rather than biological sex.

The complaint alleged that the Tumwater School District in Washington is investigating 15-year-old Frances Staudt for “misgendering” the opponent.
