Christian school withdraws contract that could exclude gay and transgender students
CNN
An Australian Christian school that caused outrage for requiring parents to sign an enrollment contract that refers to homosexuality as a sin has withdrawn the document.
Citipointe Christian College in Brisbane had given parents a deadline to sign the document which compared homosexuality to bestiality, incest and pedophilia.
The contract also said the college would only enroll a student "on the basis of the gender that corresponds to their biological sex" and suggested students could be expelled based on sexual orientation, gender identity or sexual activity.

A little-known civil rights office in the Department of Education that helps resolve complaints from students across the country about discrimination and accommodating disabilities has been gutted by the Trump administration and is now facing a ballooning backlog, a workforce that’s in flux and an unclear mandate.
