Parents outraged to find new White Bear Lake school has no girls’ bathroom
God created man in His own image,
in the image of God He created him;
male and female He created them.
Genesis 1:27
Architects discussed design details for a new elementary school in the White Bear Lake district two summers ago —
right down to the placement of light switches.
They shared specific details with parents so when students moved into the new building this fall,
there would be “no surprises.”
They apparently omitted one detail that has shocked parents and students alike:
Separate “boys” and “girls” bathrooms in the new school
have been replaced with gender-neutral
Several North Star moms who contacted Principal Dan Schmidt
told Alpha News he assured them he is working on a solution.
However, in an email to Alpha News,
Schmidt did not indicate he is working on a solution.
He told Alpha News the gender-neutral bathroom design
is being used throughout the district in new construction projects, additions, or remodeling.
The new design is taking a toll, especially on girls.
Several moms said their daughters are having a hard time using the bathroom at school.
They can’t find clean stalls because
“there’s pee all over the toilet seat and it’s gross.”
Also:
Otter Lake Elementary School converted its separate “boys” and “girls” bathrooms
to gender-neutral ones.
The change to gender-neutral bathrooms most likely was done
to comply with White Bear Lake’s districtwide “Administrative Guidelines for
Transgender and Gender-Expansive Student Rights and Protections.”
The policy addresses “the needs and concerns of transgender
and gender-expansive students to ensure safe, supportive, and healthy school environments
