The Coeur d’Alene School District met last night in a special meeting, and produced a draft policy preventing transgenders, and other students afflicted with sexual-dysphoria issues from using bathrooms not aligning with their biological sex. This move follows new legislation passed in the recent session of the Idaho Legislature and passage of SB1100.
