Maine school board upholds transgender team and bathroom ban
In a bold move aligning with federal directives, the Regional School Unit 24 school board in Sullivan, Maine, voted to reaffirm a policy that limits bathroom access and athletic participation to students’ biological sex.
The decision, originally made in October, echoes President Trump’s executive order, “Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports,” and places RSU 24 among a growing number of districts nationwide reinforcing sex-based distinctions in public education.
According to WABI, roughly 100 community members packed Tuesday night’s meeting, where dozens voiced passionate arguments both for and against the policy.
Despite ongoing legal threats from the Maine Human Rights Commission, the board stood firm and secured legal representation to defend its stance.
Superintendent Michael Eastman acknowledged the intensity of the debate but said the board remains committed to careful consideration and communication as it moves forward. The board is expected to revisit related district policies in January, assessing how this decision will shape broader governance.
At RSU 73, a similar legal fight is playing out over transgender students’ ability to access spaces and activities restricted to members of the opposite biological sex. The school board there is paying defense attorneys upwards of $275 an hour, according to documents reviewed by WGME.

“Despite ongoing legal threats from the Maine Human Rights Commission …”
State human rights commissions are always and only tools of the left. abolish them all.
Make them pay for pampering the mentally ill troons.
Only $275/hr?
I pay my lawyer here in Florida $800/hr to write my will.
Men wanting to compete against women are merely seeking an unfair advantage. It’s bullying, plain and simple.
