@Julietilsen @MPS_News I was not contacted. You’re right that does open up a conversation about online surveillance, in-person supports and how to make a better climate for all. Speaking of those supports we’re hosting a Spirit Day event today celebrating our Queer and Trans students 🌈 🦄
@Julietilsen @MPS_News Hi @Julietilsen, I agree these are horrible experiences for our students. I was notified of these incidents when it happened last year and worked with the staff on protocols for what to report, not report and how to hold sensitive information.
This important change allows for students to have their name and gender properly reflected in our systems, brings about greater visibility and respect for our #transgender and gender non-conforming students, and helps build strong student/staff relationships.
Now working with the bright minds of the Keewaydin Middle School Gender and Sexuality Alliance (GSA) talking about social constructions of masculinity and femininity.
Each day staff & students @MPS_News work to prevent bullying and in Oct. we get to take a day to recognize everyone’s efforts #UnityDay2017 https://t.co/32fz4G8AG6
@outfrontmn Genderfluid, genderqueer student speaks to importance of inclusion in activities. Credits those experiences for their success. #safeschools.
