A Florida public school employee is at risk of losing her job after allowing her transgender daughter to play girls high school volleyball, which is in apparent violation of the 2021 Fairness in Women’s Sports Act. The employee's daughter, a 16-year-old student at Monarch High School in Fort Lauderdale, was thriving academically and socially before an anonymous tipster alerted school authorities about her participation on the girls varsity volleyball team.
The ensuing investigation has had a devastating impact on the teenager's life, leading to her withdrawal from Monarch High School and transitioning to online schooling. The employee, who has been a district employee for seven years with excellent performance evaluations, now faces potential termination for her role in allowing her daughter to play on the team.
