Project Report | Dec 4, 2015
a note before winter break

     This school year we have the largest class we have ever had and we still have a waiting list!   We have a new teaching assistant, Tim, who was in our class several years ago.  He still looks young enough to play a student but can also pull off playing the teacher.  He is a very talented actor and we are glad to have him back!

     As we head for winter break, we are preparing for one more educator training. We are happy to report that it’s our first training for Teach for America!    TFA recruits outstanding college graduates to become teachers in low-income communities for a two year period.  We are thrilled to offer over 100 of these corps members training in preventing and intervening in homopobic bullying!

     Then in January, we will continue to train K-12 teachers from 97 different schools on making their classrooms safe and inclusive for LGBT students. 

     We’ve got an exciting year ahead of us, and we can’t thank you enough for your support!  We hope you stay with us for 2016 and help us make school safer for thousands of students!
