Columbus Schools to survey female athletes

Columbus School district officials say they will survey all female high school athletes this fall to find out what sports they're interested in, and to promote the ten sports already offered.  The survey is part of an agreement with the U.S. Department of Education, which was investigating claims the district discriminated against girls in sports.  A women's-rights group claimed too few girls were playing high school sports.
