In the public school system where I taught we had a sound policy to deal with transgender students. First, it was handled confidentially and very seriously involving the child, parents, psychological counseling, clergy if desired by parent, school administrator, student's guidance counselor, school nurse and student's teachers. Second, the transgender student used only unisex bathroom(s) provided at school and was exempted from physical education and extra-curricular sports activities. This took into account fairness and comfort consideration for other students. Thirdly, the student was addressed by the name they enrolled with by the parent or guardian. This policy worked successfully.
