transgender students

An Indiana school district is asking the United States Supreme Court to review a case concerning a student’s right to use the bathroom that aligns with their gender identity. A potential Supreme Court decision could set precedent for the rest of the country— if the court takes the case.

The Metropolitan School District of Martinsville is seeking affirmation from the U.S. Supreme Court regarding a case regarding a transgender student’s bathroom access.

The order issued by U.S. District Judge Tanya Walton Pratt requires John R. Wooden Middle School to allow the seventh-grader identified only as A.C. to have access to the restroom while litigation continues.
