The complaint was filed on behalf of Gavin Grimm, a tenth grade boy who is transgender diagnosed with gender dysphoria. Grimm had been using the boys鈥� restroom facilities at Gloucester High School since October 2014 without any complaints from his peers prior to the adoption of the policy.

The school policy restricts male and female school restrooms to students with 鈥渃orresponding biological genders鈥� or requires transgender students to use an 鈥渁lternative private facility.鈥� According to the complaint, the policy discriminates against Grimm on the basis of his sex in violation of Title IX of the U.S. Education Amendments of 1972.

Since the beginning of the school year, Grimm had been open about his gender identity with Gloucester High School鈥檚 administration, teachers and students. Prior to October, he exclusively used unisex restroom facilities in the nurse鈥檚 office, but found that experience to be stigmatizing and isolating.

Experts have found that the 鈥渂iological gender鈥� policy interferes with transgender students鈥� ability to fully participate in daily school activities and restricts them to an exclusionary environment where they often feel ostracized.
