Hundreds of students in Pennsylvania walked out of school in protest over a new rule allowing transgender students to use the bathroom of their choice.
High school students in Perkiomen Valley School District staged the protest after officials opted not to adopt a policy that would force students to use restrooms which correspond with their biological sex.
They accused education chiefs of 'compromising' their rights and putting female students at risk during the demonstration last week.
The policy was proposed by local father Tim Jagger, who said his daughter had become distressed after encountering a transgender student in the bathroom.
However neither Jagger nor his daughter could be sure the person she met was a biological male, according to 6abc.
Board members voted against the bathroom ban last Monday, sparking fury among some parents and students.
High schooler John Ott who organized the walkout told Fox News '(Female students) were upset. They didn't want men in their bathroom.'
His mother Stephanie Ott added: 'This is about protecting our children and our privacy and boys and girls. It's simple biology.'
Meanwhile fellow student Victoria Rudolph also told the outlet: 'There needs to be some changes. It's just uncomfortable seeing 19-year-old men or 18-year-old men in the bathroom.'

About time!
Women athletes should have done the same a LONG TIME AGO!
Adults have become so dumb, that the kids are now smarter than they are
The Left hates women.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
“However neither Jagger nor his daughter could be sure the person she met was a biological male, according to 6abc.”
I despise the media.
“”walked out of school in protest over a new rule allowing transgender students to use the bathroom of their choice.””
Impressive.

The extreme minority is destroying our country!
School boards have become public menace. I suppose public education too.
Silly students, don’t they know?
Walk-outs and sit-ins are meaningful only when in furtherance of The Party’s objectives.
Isn’t it amazing how Liberals are so generous with giving away other people’s money, freedom, property value, taxes and safety. But when it comes to their own money, freedom, property value, taxes and safety; they always show their hypocrisy?
And still call anyone who questions their hypocrites a bigot?
It also isnt great for guys. I don’t want women in my restroom either.
Its a prime way for false allegations to be thrown at a guy and ruin his life.
Yep, been saying it for years.
“Adults have become so dumb,...”
Not dumb at all. They know exactly what they’re doing.
May this confusion END.
The good news is school districts in PA are pretty small (500+ districts statewide) so these bozos will probably be removed next election.
Fire these people immediately. They work for the taxpayers, fire them.
But, really beware of the 15 year old boy!!!!!!
Early on I saw an interview with one of the woman athletes (I think it was the blonde swimmer who has been making the rounds on the news) and she said that while she supported the rights of transgenders to exist, she didn’t think transgender males should be competing as women against women, COMPLETELY undercutting their argument. If you’re not willing to call the BS out, I have no sympathy for you when you’ve been cheated by the cheaters.
