Cromwell High School in Connecticut is at center of ongoing legal fight over transgender student athletes' participation in competitive girls' sports.

The town's school system could lose nearly $1 million in federal special education funding if the department determines it's in violation of Title IX , the federal civil rights law.

In March , the Department of Education opened an investigation into Portland Public Schools , Oregon , over allowing a transgender athlete to compete on a high school girls’ track-and-field team.
