DailyCaller School Board Will Petition Supreme Court To Decide If High School Girl Can Use Boys’ A school district in rural, coastal Virginia will petition the U.S. Supreme Court to overturn a federal appeals court ruling that would force the district to allow a female student to use boys’ bathrooms and locker rooms.
On Tuesday, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 4th Circuit granted a request by the Gloucester County School Board to suspend the court’s ruling, in order to give the board’s attorneys time to make their arguments to the Supreme Court for a writ of certiorari, reports The Washington Post. The student at the center of the lawsuit, Gavin Grimm, attends Gloucester High School in Gloucester, Va. In April, a three-judge panel 4th Circuit judges ruled — essentially — that the Gloucester school district cannot ban Grimm from boys’ bathrooms and locker rooms.
The reason school officials prevented Grimm from using facilities reserved for boys on campus is because Grimm was born a girl and by all accounts remains a girl. However, in a 2-1 decision, the trio of judges held that the district and lower courts must follow the Obama administration’s interpretation of Title IX, which allows students who call themselves transgender to choose their own bathrooms.
