This is a petition for, as the title states, a group at St. Ignatius that recognizes the LGBTQ community. We realize that a full-on GSA is not possible, as it conflicts with the Catholic teaching of our school. Simply having some sort of group, though, that would help our LGBTQ students to feel comfortable with themselves at school would be amazing. We don't want to go against the Catholic church or our school, we merely aim to make everybody feel accepted, especially in a learning environment in which everyone should be able to feel safe.
Seeing this level of support for our fellow students at school leaves me feeling truly hopeful for our community. This momentum proves that so many of you want to see a safer environment where everyone feels they belong.

School is hard enough already without feeling like you have to hide who you are. This just makes sense.

Every kid deserves to feel safe at school. It shouldn't be too much to ask for kids to just have a place where they feel seen.

IGNATIUS NEEDS TO STEP UP. These kids are just looking for a little support. Stop ignoring them.
