The U.S. Education Department’s Office for Civil Rights is investigating a North Texas school district after its superintendent was secretly recorded giving instructions to librarians to remove books containing LGBT themes from the library.
The Office notified officials from Granbury school about the investigation on Dec. 6. The investigation stems from a letter of complaint filed by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) in July that accused the school district of violating Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 that prohibits discrimination based on sex, gender, and sexual orientation.
