The policy stated that students must use restrooms and locker rooms that correspond with their sex assigned at birth. It also prohibited transgender students from using bathrooms that align with their gender identities.
The policy also opened single-use bathrooms, previously only available to teachers, to all students and staff regardless of gender.

Many parents and residents argued that the policy was unfair for transgender students.
