Under Title 9, schools are prohibited from treating student differently or excluding students from programs/classes/activities based on a pregnancy, childbirth, or pregnancy related condition. Furthermore, schools must provide for accommodations to address the educational needs of students who are pregnant, have pregnancy related medical conditions, or have children while they are students at the school. A school’s failure to address and/or grant accommodations may leave the school open to liability.
