South Carolina Student Physical Privacy Act mandates single-sex restrooms and changing facilities in public schools and higher education institutions.
The South Carolina Student Physical Privacy Act requires public schools and higher education institutions to designate restrooms and changing facilities for use by one sex only. These facilities must be used exclusively by members of the designated sex, with exceptions for custodial work, medical assistance, and emergencies. The act also prohibits students from sharing sleeping quarters or multioccupancy restrooms with members of the opposite sex during overnight lodging unless they are family members. Violations result in a 25% penalty on funds used to support the institution's operations.
