(AP Photo/Steve Helber) Primary Content The Supreme Court gave the LGBTQ community a victory Monday, when the court declined to hear a case centered around the use of restrooms by transgender students. Gavin Grimm, a transgender male student in Virginia, was denied the use of the boys bathroom at his school by the Gloucester County school board. His right to use it was later affirmed by lower federal courts — citing a federal law that prohibits schools from discriminating against students on the basis of sex.
