Lake Pend Oreille School District agreed last week to enter a voluntary resolution agreement with the U.S. Department of Education’s Office for Civil Rights after receiving a complaint filed by a Sandpoint resident. 

The complaint originated in July 2021 when Mark Rossmiller alleged LPOSD failed to provide equal athletic opportunities to female students by not accommodating their interests and abilities.

According to the Sept. 6 resolution agreement, the district voluntarily agreed to provide participation opportunities for female and male students that equally and effectively accommodate the athletic interests and abilities of both sexes in compliance with Title IX.
