The Five school districts with Title IX violations, how much money do they stand to lose?

I don’t think we should be spending money on this

You seem to think that there is some sort of “silent majority” that opposes this, but lacks the courage to stand up for its convictions. Sometimes the loudest and most numerous voices do really reflect the majority opinion. I generally keep my mouth shut in public because I don’t want to deal with death threats from MAGA pedophiles in flyover country, but I support 100% what the school board is doing.

.

Curious how folks who disagree with APS trans policy might be concerned about labeling from dogmatic progressives. You can hear yourself right?

Sorry if it hurts your feelings, but these anti-trans activists are absolutely unhinged and they are firing off death threats. They like to “protect women and girls” by threatening the lives of women and girls. I can’t make it make sense.

Most dems aren’t anti-trans, they just want them in their own space just like boys and girls have their own space.

Not most Ds in Arlington.

At a minimum, most Ds in Arlington support the rule of law. Not everyone is comfortable ignoring binding precedent simply because we don’t like the outcome. It’s not like this Administration has shown an ounce of respect for the rule of law or the Constitution. It’s fair to look at this outrageous, politically motivated demand from Trump and friends and wonder what’s next.

Histrionics about Trump and the admin are not persuasive to me on this issue. I am an Arlingtonian. I typically vote Democratic. I don’t like much of what the Admin is doing, but I definitely don’t like that APS has decided to spend taxpayer dollars on a really expensive law firm on enforcing gender based sex rules. Which by the way, everyone thinks the Supreme Court will overturn. So, in my view, they are just flushing our money down the toilet which could be spent on, I don’t know, foreign languages before 7th grade, theater programs, preschool, and a million other things that could benefit way more students. I feel like it’s posturing for the benefit of board members and the superintendent to further their own political agenda/career at the expense of most of our students.

And then what will you be screaming when my view IS the rule of law.

Yes, we understand that bigots support Trump’s actions. You have already told us 1 billion times. Fortunately, most of Arlington disagrees with you.

It depresses that in my own community I’m labeled a bigot for disagreeing with the APS transgender policy. I think it speaks volumes about how you/progressives approach issues. I would fully support remodeling all the schools to allow for single restrooms, like in many places where everyone could just use a bathroom without saying amy thing about one’s gender. But I am rational and know that we don’t have the money for this. I also know that this issue impacts only a very very small number of children in our jurisdiction, and I believe that a reasonable compromise is to offer those few children use of a private restroom. I dont think forcing all the girls to have trans kids in their restroom/locker room is a safe or healthy option. I don’t support Trump and I don’t believe this makes me a bigot. It does make voicing non progressive views in a public forum too uncomfortable for many of us. That’s a real shame.

the small number of kids bothered by this can use a private bathroom

This has been covered. Kids aren’t typically allowed to use private bathrooms without a “reason.” Most of us would be happy for our kids to do so.

And how do you know it’s a small number? You don’t think a lot of teen boys are uncomfortable using a urinal when a female may enter the bathroom?

Yes they are allowed to use the private restroom. Anyone can.

Which school does your child attend that has this policy? Those bathrooms are typically reserved for teachers/adults unless the student has a special reason.

it's allowed in all of APS

How many trans kids in APS want to use the bathroom of the opposite sex? Like one? Even kids who view themselves as the opposite gender may not want to delve into a teenage locker room filled with boys/girls. For those tiny tiny number of children, wouldn’t it be reasonable to grant them access to a private bathroom rather than spend millions (?) on Wilkie to lose a court battle everyone knows they will lose.

It’s like religious holidays in APS, there is no correlation to the impact on actual students. It’s just: we are the most inclusive and progressive regardless of the cost for most children in our jurisdiction.

no it's more than one. a lot of people don't even know these kids are trans. because they are so transitioned they just appear as the gender they identify with. truly it would be so much weirder to have a trans boy go into the girls room just because they were born with female private parts. is that what you really want PP?

A couple of years ago, the county actually made a change that allowed for students to use the adult bathrooms for this reason. A lot of teachers were upset because there are not a lot of adult facilities, there’s limited times to use them and adults don’t want to go into student restrooms for various reasons

I knew that and so did you because we are actually part of APS. The fact that the other poster did not just shows they are not even part of APS. Just haters from outside, just like the speakers that had to be imported to speak against the trans policy.

NP. As a biological female and mother of 3 young biological female children, I would be more comfortable with this than have a biological male in their bathroom.

32 pages on this. I have a kid in middle school and this has not been an issue. At all. No reports of boys in their bathrooms or locker room. No boys playing on girls teams.

The pedo guy should never have been in any APS locker room. Weird that people are fine if he's in a boys locker room.

You have one middle school student. How does that make you qualified to say this is a non issue?

There are real documented instances where this was and is very much an issue.

There should be no place for males in girls sports or their bathrooms.

I am not an outsider. At my kid’s APS ES, there are signs on the single bathrooms saying adults/staff only. I admit I haven’t noticed if those signs are up in MS or not.

It’s a fabricated issue pushed by bigots and political operatives. They are leaning into it again since elections are coming up and they know people are pissed about Trump.
