A rural Wisconsin school district announced Thursday it would provide a safer environment after a nonbinary student said they were harassed that prompted a U.S. Department of Education intervention.
During the Education Department’s probe of the high school in Rhinelander, Wisconsin, it was discovered that multiple teachers repeatedly used incorrect pronouns when referring to the harassed nonbinary student. One teacher removed the student from class because the teacher couldn’t protect the student from being continuously harassed by other students.
