A snippet from the Agency of Education's "Continuing Best Practices for Schools Regarding Transgender and Gender Nonconforming Students" outlining the use of restrooms and locker rooms by transgender students (from screenshot).

Sports and Physical Education

Transgender and gender nonconforming students are to be provided with the same opportunities to participate in physical education as are all other students. Generally, students should be permitted to participate in physical education and sports in accordance with the student's gender identity. Participation in competitive athletic activities and sports will be resolved on a case-by-case basis. Schools should refer to the Vermont Principal's Association Activities/Athletics Policies: Article 1 Section 2.

Restroom and Locker Room Accessibility

The use of restrooms and locker rooms by transgender students requires schools to consider numerous factors, including, but not limited to: the transgender student's preference; protecting student privacy; maximizing social integration of the transgender student; minimizing stigmatization of the student; ensuring equal opportunity to participate; the student's age; and protecting the safety of the students involved.

A transgender student should not be required to use a locker room or restroom that conflicts with the student's gender identity.

Schools may consider including gender neutral restrooms into the design of new construction and/or building renovation.

Gender Segregation in Other Areas

As a general rule, in any other circumstances where students are separated by gender in school activities (i.e. overnight field trips), students should be permitted to participate in accordance with their gender identity. Activities that may involve the need for accommodations to address student privacy concerns will be addressed on a case-by-case basis considering the factors set forth above.

The tranny kid’s mom is straight out lying, or she is so f**ked up as a parent, she believes her mentally ill son’s lies.
