KTVI reports that the mother is identified as Jane Doe in the lawsuit against Ladue Horton Watkins High School.
Ladue officials said Friday that a junior who doesn’t make the varsity team can’t return to the junior varsity team. According to the lawsuit, this amounts to age and sexual discrimination because the same rules don’t apply to younger students or to girls.
The family sued after Ladue Superintendent Donna Jahnke decided the family’s complaint was unsubstantiated.
In courtroom testimony Friday, coach Dave Aronberg said the seven juniors cut from the varsity team weren’t good enough for the junior varsity team.
