My LGBTQ child was at ESESES at Magruder. It was a very welcoming place. I never asked about bathrooms though.

But the official answer is often different than lived experience. I'm at another HS that has the bathroom, but it's permanently locked. I had to sneak a kid into a staff bathroom because they were desperate and had nowhere to go.
Thank you and exactly this.

If anyone knows if Macgruder has accessible all-gender restrooms in various places throughout the building that would be great.
I am at Magruder and teachers have reported the same issue with students requiring an all-gender bathroom needing a lot of time to go to the bathroom due to needing to get a key from the office. If this this ESESS program, there are probably more bathroom options though.
