In Worcester Catholic schools, any trans student will only be allowed to use pronouns and clothing consistent with their biological gender under a new policy from the diocese.The diocese says schools will"consider the gender of all students as being consistent with their biological sex" in regards to pronouns, restrooms, locker rooms, uniforms, sports and dances.
