District 203 Title IX policy change
Naperville School District 203’s board of education on Monday approved changes to several policies addressing Title IX, noting the federal-level changes implemented earlier this year under President Donald Trump’s administration.
Three specific board policies — 2:260, 2:265 and 5:10 — do reference the latest sets of federal Title IX changes, which “include removing references to gender identity.” However, Naperville 203 will continue to uphold the provisions under the Illinois Human Rights Act, which does include language about gender identity protections.
Naperville 203’s board discussed with administrators the Title IX policy changes over multiple meetings. The changes were incorporated into a larger package of policy updates on different issues. Several residents weighed in on Title IX during public comment at the Monday board meeting, before final action was taken.
