A high school in your district has recently been evaluated and found to have a significant disparity in the number of sports opportunities offered to male and female students. Based on the principles established by Title IX, what should be the school's immediate course of action to address this issue?

To address the disparity in sports opportunities for male and female students, the school should first assess the current offerings and identify specific areas where female students are underrepresented. Title IX requires that schools provide equal opportunities for both genders, so the school must create a plan to increase female participation in sports. This could involve adding more teams or sports specifically for girls, ensuring that facilities and resources are equally available. For example, if the school currently has five boys' teams and only two girls' teams, they might add a girls' soccer team to help balance the numbers. By taking these steps, the school can work towards providing a fair and equal athletic experience for all students.
