ezs note:  Sparta Board of Education - hate to break it to ya, but sometimes the "evil' bigwigs are RIGHT.  By following your dimwitted policy, transgender students will continue to be miserable, and ALL students will sacrifice books, computers, school library materials and more for lawyers' fees.  But oh please, have at it. 😡

ezs note:  My best advice in taking prescription medication is to seek the advice of your doctor - but not just any doctor.  If she/he has never treated a transgender patient, and/or has not specialized in transgender concerns, it might be best to find someone else.
