Friend, in honor of the back-to-school season we asked Selina Peña (she/they), a queer Chicanx educator and content creator, how acceptance and inclusivity in the classroom positively impact LGBTQ students.
“[Educators] have the amazing opportunity to mold the minds and souls of the next generation inside the vivid tapestry of our classrooms. Let us bear in mind the huge impact we can have on our students’ lives as we stand in front of them each day for our classes. For our diverse and intersectional communities, our presence might act as a beacon of understanding, acceptance, and hope.” – Selina Peña

This month we also asked LGBTQ young people to share in their own words what heading back to school means to them. We encourage educators, parents, and all of our allies to read their responses and understand that all kids just want to be kids and belong at school.
