Just like students at colleges and universities, K students who attend publicly funded schools are entitled to Title IX protections, which bar gender discrimination at those institutions. Title IX also outlines protocols for reporting sexual violence, and it requires schools to support survivors so they can continue their education as their cases are being investigated.
But while there has been more attention — and resources — given to survivors of sexual violence on college campuses over the past decade, students who experience sexual violence in grade school often do not get the same level of support, said Emma Grasso Levine, manager of the youth survivor advocacy group Know Your IX.
Patrick Smith, a spokesperson for Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools, said the district has required that Title IX classes be taught to elementary and middle school students within the first 20 days of the school year since ; high schools must complete the training within the first 10 days.

I throw on my dining hall uniform, completed by my earbuds. The occasional droning, drawn-out note harmonizes with the howling wind as I step outside of my building.
The distant, echoing vocals gently pierce through the silence of the early morning. In truth, I like the emptiness of South University Avenue at dawn. In the evenings, jovial laughter echoes through the air, seeping through my apartment window as I sit in my bedroom, tapping through Snapchat stories of people living out television fantasies of the college experience. A year ago, I thought I would be much happier when people filled the streets.
Yet, I still spend my nights in the company of unfinished math homework and my own bitterness.
