School rehires transgender female coach after he used girls’ locker room and bathroom

‘It was clear from what they saw that Mr. Yates was still fully a man’

Board members of the Gettysburg Area School District in Pennsylvania recently voted to rehire a transgender female tennis coach despite reports he had used a girls’ locker room and bathroom in the past year.

According to PennLive.com, the school board rehired Sasha Yates on September 5 by a 6-2 vote after deadlocking 3-3 on the issue a few weeks earlier.

The report notes board members provided “scant” details about Yates’ coaching contract, but denied it was due to his gender preference.
