A first-of-its-kind study published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention indicates that 3.3% of all U.S. high schoolers identify as transgender.
The study, taken in 2023 and published by the CDC this month, also suggests that an additional 2.2% of high schoolers are “questioning” their gender identity, meaning that 5.5% of all U.S. high schoolers consider themselves transgender or are questioning their sex.
