"Back in January, a Peninsula School District principal was searching for information after a student came out to them as transgender. Without any guidance from the district on transgender issues in schools, the principal was seeking help to make sure the student could get on with the business of learning, free from harassment and discomfort.

The district's diversity committee set to work on the issue and have now crafted a policy that will make peninsula schools more accepting of transgender students."

All I can say is "Wow!" Washington state really is getting its act together.

Why are they saying its an 'issue'

Just make this student feel welcome and make sure that they are not harassed.
