High School District 230 officials say concerns spread on social media regarding a male student using the female locker rooms at Stagg High School were investigated and found to be untrue. Discussion on Facebook groups and at a recent district meeting was based on inaccurate rumors that spread quickly as the national topic of multigender bathrooms becomes a hot-button issue locally, officials said.
“In all physical education locker rooms, there have been private changing areas for students since 2017-18,” he said. “We have currently expanded the number of private areas. In our bathrooms, both genders have private stalls to use.” In the past several years, Illinois policy about who may use what bathrooms has also changed for public establishments. Lawmakers passed the Equitable Restroom Act of 2019 which states all single-stall bathrooms in public places have to be gender neutral.
