LOUDOUN COUNTY, Va. — The families of two Loudoun County students who were found to have violated the district's Title IX policies filed an appeal and threatened a lawsuit on Wednesday.

The students were suspended for 10 days after being found responsible for sexual harassment and sex-based discrimination.

The suspension was set to start next Monday, but is now paused because of the appeal. The families said their sons are being wrongly punished, and it was their children's privacy that was violated.

This stems from an incident at Stone Bridge High School in March. The father of one of the two students said the boys were recorded talking about being uncomfortable with having what they said was a girl in their locker room.
