Last night a student was at a speech I gave. They came up after to ask how my school supports non-binary students. I’m wondering how you might answer this?

How does your school support them? All gender bathrooms? Preferred pronoun prompts in meetings, PDs, and discussions? Ongoing advisory/community meeting discussions?

They actually don’t attend my school. It was a general question to me as an educator. Your ideas are really good. They were asking how I personally supported students. I spoke about pronoun use and bathrooms

I’m trying to find affordable books that have trans and non bianary characters for reading, but may have to wait for the school year and students to request specific books to build my library slowly. One reason I’m not a huge fan of the literary cannon is it doesn’t include these kids who need representation the most because it is very lacking in the public sphere.

Sensitivity to their needs. We had a student who was trans who couldn’t complete a health unit about male anatomy because he had a panic attack because he doesn’t have it. A teacher had a conversation with him to verify he knew the content then scored the information from the conversation as the quiz grade and exempted him from the lesson
