7-11-23 wisconsin school district can’t restrict bathrooms for transgender student, federal judge says

MADISON, Wis. (AP) — A federal judge has blocked a Wisconsin school district from requiring transgender students to use bathrooms and locker rooms that match the sex they were assigned at birth. The Mukwonago Area School District passed the policy last month. U.S. District Judge Lynn Adelman blocked it on Thursday pending a legal challenge. The judge said it has caused harm to the 11-year-old transgender student who anonymously sued the school district. Court documents say school officials have forced the student to use boys’ or gender-neutral bathrooms at summer school. The student was described as male at birth but has identified as a girl since she was three.
