LOUDOUN COUNTY, VIRGINIA: A grand jury's scathing findings into how the district handled two sexual assaults by a student in a skirt led to the school board's decision to dismiss the superintendent. In May 2021, a 15-year-old boy sexually assaulted a female student in a transgender-friendly restroom at Stone Bridge High School in Virginia. The teenager was found guilty of sexually assaulting a separate girl at a different school in October 2021 while donning a skirt at the time of the event.
