The Ohio High School Athletic Association already has a policy in place regarding transgender sports, though the issue impacts very few athletes, the association told the committee.
The following article was originally published in the Ohio Capital Journal and published on News5Cleveland.com under a content-sharing agreement.
The original intent of the bill was to make changes to the Ohio Teacher Residency Program, a two-year program that helps teachers learn about the education system through observation of veteran teachers and conducts the Resident Educator Summative Assessment. “HB 151 creates a system of support for new teachers, allowing them opportunities to connect online with highly qualified mentors,” Tom Perkins, BASA executive director, told the committee.
The effort has been harshly criticized by LGBTQ advocates and others, especially because of specific language that could create a process of genital inspection for trans students. One group that testified specifically on the added part of the bill was the Ohio High School Athletic Association. Ute said the policy “has been very effective in addressing their participation” and was written to allow trans females to participate in sports, “but only when the student does not possess the physical traits that would undermine girls sports.”
