The school board in Virginia may finally be giving in, although not in court. It will hold a public hearing Tuesday to discuss the possibility of allowing transgender students to use restrooms that correspond with their gender identity. A federal judge ruled Thursday that he can sue over its refusal to change the gender on his high school transcript, which still lists him as female. The issue of Grimm’s transcript highlights another concern in the transgender community that, like bathroom policies, remains far from settled across the nation. The school board had argued that its bathroom policy did not violate Grimm’s rights but protected students’ privacy.
