The transgender athlete also hasn\u2019t been publicly identified.<\/p>\n<p>Allen noted that she\u2019s not the only girl who has raised these concerns. Some parents have also approached school officials to inform them how uncomfortable it makes them feel that a biological male is changing with their daughter.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere are biological boys that go into the girl\u2019s bathroom, but never a locker room,\u201d Allen said.<\/p>\n<p>The girls and parents who\u2019ve raised the issue want the school to relocate the transgender athlete, but officials have instead advised the group of girls to find another room to change.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThey want all the girls who feel uncomfortable\u2014so pretty much 10 girls\u2014to get changed in a single-stall bathroom, which would take over 30 minutes. Where if one person got changed separately, it would take a minute, like no extra time,\u201d Allen argued.<\/p>\n<p>In an emailed statement responding to the families of affected players, school officials stated that there\u2019s \u201cplenty of space where students who feel uncomfortable with the laws may change in privacy,\u201d WCAX-TV reported.<\/p>\n<p>According to Vermont\u2019s state law, students can play sports and use the locker room that correspond to the gender with which they identify.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, the school reportedly sent out a second email to inform parents that they\u2019ve launched an investigation<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A number of girls playing for a high school volleyball team in Vermont have been barred from using their own locker room after filing a complaint to school officials about a transgender teammate, according to a report.
