Shenandoah County Public School Update August 2025

In this episode, we break down the new policy in Shenandoah County Public Schools that bans transgender students from participating in athletics according to their gender identity. Learn why this policy, which claims to "protect girls," could actually harm all female athletes by putting them under a microscope and discouraging participation. It's not just about trans students; it's about creating a hostile environment for any girl who excels.
