The Francis Howell School District in suburban St. Louis is considering a new policy that would require students to use bathrooms and locker rooms that correspond to the sex they were assigned at birth.
One parent told the board she is "embarrassed" for her elected officials who "believe that this is a true issue."
As the St. Louis Post-Dispatch notes, the policy was proposed in October by Jane Puszkar, a member of the school board's conservative majority. The majority of the speakers at the board's October meeting opposed the policy, and a petition opposing it has been signed by close to 700 people.
