As you know all of the schools have flags of countries representing the nationalities of students. In these places, I've wondered why there isn't a pride flag. After all, it may not be a nationality but it is important to show support for the LGBTQ+ community. As people get older they start to explore their sexuality and gender. But some people feel that they wouldn't be accepted by there family or friends. Adding this flag will make it so students will know that they'll always have students and teachers that will help, comfort, and accept them. I know that it is a hard and important thing to come out, luckily I have very accepting friends and family. Some people don't and again it is very important to know that there are always people there for you. This will also show students who are transitioning or don't identify with their birth gender that they can tell students and teachers their real name and correct pronouns. This will help many LGBTQ+ students know that they are accepted and it would help the entire district.

I have been meeting with school board members to explain why our hallway needs a symbol of inclusion for all students. They are stalling but we have enough momentum to keep pushing for an official response. Post this link on your Facebook page and email your local rep to demand they prioritize our request.

The momentum is building because you are showing the district that representation matters. Post the link to your Facebook page and email your school board representative today to keep this pressure high.

LGBTQ COMMUNITY RISE UP! We need more representation at this school. Plus, it would look great on advertisements lol.
