Description:
The Gender & Sexuality Alliance is a student-run club, which provides an inclusive and safe place for students to meet, support each other, talk about issues related the LGBTQIA+ community, and work to end homophobia. The GSA provides safety and confidentiality to students who are struggling with their identity as gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgender, or questioning. In addition to support, the GSA works on educating themselves and the broader school community about sexual orientation and gender identity issues. We participate in the Day of Silence, a day when participants remain silent all day as a way of acknowledging the silence induced by homophobia in our society. A few of our members are involved with staff development, which focuses on teaching school staff how to be better allies for LGBTQ students.

GSA will meet every other Monday after school in the LMC.
