THE DEI MADNESS CONTINUES---AN IMPORTANT ARTICLE IN LOHUD, SUBSCRIPTION ONLY, BOYS PLAYING ON GIRLS-ONLY SPORTS TEAMS? WHY NY MAY ORDER HIGH SCHOOLS TO ALLOW IT

Welcome to Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton -- our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship -- in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

THE DEI MADNESS CONTINUES....the following article is very lengthy, detailed and subscription only at LOHUD---here are a few sentences:

Boys playing on girls-only sports teams? Why NY may order high schools to allow it

New York may order high schools to let boys play girls-only sports and compete against girls for spots on those teams under a proposed policy change that has alarmed school administrators.

The proposal by the state Education Department would break down gender distinctions for any sports that don't offer separate teams for both boys and girls. So it would have no impact on soccer, lacrosse, track and other two-sex sports. But boys could now compete with girls in softball and field hockey, both in tryouts and games.
