Today, ERA filed formal requests for information from Bay Area school districts on their Title IX compliance, following allegations that the institutions may be ignoring the decades-old federal legislation outlawing discriminating against women and girls in education.

According to Title IX, schools must follow a series of basic regulations (including appointing a Title IX coordinator who investigates discrimination and harassment complaints), but an NBC Bay Area investigation revealed such rules may be ignored in local schools.
