Council Bluffs students hold walkout over transgender student seeking to use women's bathroom




By Mike Bell / World-Herald News Service Apr 12, 2019 Updated 1 hr ago

About 60 Abraham Lincoln High School students left the classroom Thursday morning in a walkout in which groups showed opposition — and support — for a transgender student who identifies as female and wishes to use the women’s bathroom at school.

The students split into two groups at 10:30 a.m. outside the main entrance.

One group, which supported the student, walked up the hill near the track, while the second, opposing group remained near the entrance.

The first group could be heard chanting “equality,” while the second chanted “We want our privacy, he is a male,” and “One over all is not fair.”
