O.C.G.A. 49-5-22 (2010)
49-5-22. Voluntary pre-kindergarten programs to provide toilet facilities screened for privacy


(a) The General Assembly finds that just as gender separated toileting among nonrelatives is the norm among adults, children should be allowed the same opportunity to practice modesty when independent toileting behavior is well established among the majority of their age group. Standardized adherence to this policy would provide privacy, injury control, and sanitation.

(b) Each public or private voluntary pre-kindergarten program in this state which receives state funding shall provide toilet facilities for the four-year-old pre-kindergarten age children which it serves which are suitably screened for privacy. Nothing contained in this Code section shall be construed to require a pre-kindergarten program to provide separately constructed toilet facilities.

(c) The provisions of subsection (b) of this Code section shall not apply to any voluntary pre-kindergarten program which provides separate and gender-specific toilet facilities for the children which it serves.
