SB 212 Missouri Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Requires all public school shower rooms, locker rooms, and restrooms to be designated for and used by male or female students only

SB 212 requires all public school shower rooms, locker rooms, and restrooms to be designated exclusively for use by students of one sex (male or female). It directly affects public school students, staff, and administrators who must comply with these gender-based facility designations. The bill mandates that schools designate each facility as either "for male students only" or "for female students only," prohibiting mixed-gender use. This policy change applies to all public K-12 schools in the state, altering how students access basic facilities. The bill passed the Education Committee in February 2025 but remains pending further legislative action.
