A South Carolina school district is updating its policy to allow transgender students to use restrooms consistent with their gender identity.

The news comes one week after a transgender student threatened legal action against Horry County Schools for suspending him for using the "wrong" bathroom.

==========================================

A courageous student standing up for his rights. The moral of the story: Don't let yourself be bullied. Stay strong.
