School board fires solicitor over 'ill advice' on transgender student bathroom issue

SELINSGROVE -- The Selinsgrove Area School District has fired its solicitor for what it termed providing "ill advice" regarding how it deals with transgender students.

The board Monday night by an 8-1 vote terminated Beard Legal Group of Altoona during a meeting at which community members again debated the district's practice that permits transgender students to use the bathroom of their choice.

Superintendent Chad Cohrs implemented the practice at the beginning of the school year, but parents were not notified by letter until October.
