I believe all students, regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity/expression deserve to feel safe and supported.
That means I pledge to:
* Not use anti-LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender) language or slurs.
* Intervene, if I safely can, in situations where students are being harassed.
* Support efforts to end bullying and harassment.
The stories shared by students in the comments highlight the urgent need for a more inclusive environment within our schools. I am currently reaching out to local administrators to discuss how these pledges can be integrated into existing anti-bullying policies.

The momentum behind this pledge indicates a profound shift in how our community views the safety of its students. It is encouraging to see so many individuals publicly commit to these standards of respect and intervention.
