Student physical privacy provision
SF 802 requires Minnesota public schools and charter schools to designate restrooms, locker rooms, changing rooms, and showers for exclusive use based on biological sex, defined as a person's chromosomes and anatomy. It specifically prohibits students with a Y chromosome from using facilities designated for females. The bill also sets rules for athletic teams, allowing sex-segregated teams only if athletic opportunities for that sex were previously limited, while requiring equal resources for comparable teams. These provisions apply to all public schools in Minnesota, directly affecting student access to facilities and sports programs.
