Edwardsville HS: Installing Multi-gender, Multi-stall Bathroom

This September Edwardsville High School will begin construction on its building to include multi-stall, unisex bathrooms as part of its commons expansion.

Doing so will force girls to share bathrooms with boys and vice versa –all in an effort to be more “inclusive” to transgender students. The Edwardsville District School Board decided to move forward with a bathroom remodel after HB 1286, the Equitable Restrooms-All-Gender bill, sponsored by Representative Katie Stuart (D-Collinsville). It was signed into law by Governor J.B. Pritzker in August.
