The board fired Ziegler on Tuesday evening, Fox News reported. The previous day, a grand jury issued a report finding administrators “were looking out for their own interests instead of the best interests of LCPS” and “failed at every juncture.”

The report, ordered earlier this year by GOP Gov. Glenn Youngkin specifically condemned Ziegler for his comments in June 2021 after a biological boy assaulted a girl in the women’s restroom in May of that year.

He said “the predator transgender student or person simply does not exist” and “we don’t have any record of assaults occurring in our restrooms.”
