A recent Court decision reminds school districts that the rights of the accused must also be protected during any Title IX investigation. In the case of Schiebel v. Schoharie Central School District, 120 F. 4th 1082 (2d. Cir. 2024), an agricultural educator brought a Title IX claim against the school district, alleging that the school district discriminated against him on the basis of sex in the manner that it conducted a Title IX investigation. The Court found the educator set forth a viable claim exposing the school district to liability.
