Title IX (Gender Equity) in Athletics

Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972 ("Title IX") is most commonly known to apply to athletic opportunities. Title IX applies to all SFUSD schools and prohibits discrimination in all educational programs and activities, not just athletics. Athletic programs are considered educational programs and activities. 

Title IX requires that all genders have equal opportunity in sports.  SFUSD is committed to providing equal opportunities and benefits to all of its student athletes.
