A school employee who faces being fired because she allowed her transgender daughter to play girls high school volleyball assailed those who outed her child, saying on Tuesday that the ensuing investigation destroyed the girl's life.
Jessica Norton said her daughter was thriving at Monarch High School in suburban Fort Lauderdale before an anonymous tipster notified a Broward County school board member in November that the 16-year-old was playing on the girls’ varsity volleyball team in apparent violation of state law. The 2021 Fairness in Women’s Sports Act bars students who were born male from participating in girls sports.
