A Lake Tahoe school district is caught between California and Nevada's competing policies on transgender student athletes, a dispute that's poised to reorder where the district's students compete.
High schools in California's Tahoe-Truckee Unified School District, set in a mountainous, snow-prone area near the border with Nevada, have for decades competed in the Nevada Interscholastic Activities Association, or NIAA. That has allowed sports teams to avoid making frequent and potentially hazardous trips in poor winter weather to competitions farther to the west, district officials say.
