IMA CRY WTF

AAAAAAAAA

OKAY SO



the school im going to in ottawa, canada has a whole thing set up for transgender students, and they take it very seriously



here's a couple things from the paper-



"Transgender, intersex, two-spirit and gender diverse students have the right to be addressed by a name and pronoun corresponding to their gender identity. This is true regardless of whether the student has obtained a legal name or sex designation change. (e.g., in the school database and registration system, a student’s “preferred or chosen name” and a change of gender can be used on class lists, timetables, etc.) School staff may need to make manual changes to report cards and diplomas to ensure that the preferred name and pronouns appear on these documents. Students who wish to use gender diverse pronouns such as “they”, “them”, “zhe”, “ze”, “hir” to identify themselves will be accommodated."

"All students have a right to safe restroom facilities and the right to use a washroom that best corresponds to the student’s gender identity and gender expression, regardless of the student’s sex assigned at birth. Requiring students to ‘prove’ their gender (by requiring a doctor’s letter, identity documents, etc.) is not acceptable. A student’s self-identification is the sole measure of the student’s gender.Where possible, schools will also provide an easily accessible all-gender single stall washroom for use by any student who desires increased privacy, regardless of the underlying reason. Use of an all-gender single stall washroom is an option students may request, but should not be imposed upon a student by the school because of the student’s gender identity."

"School staff must ensure students can exercise their right to participate in gender-segregated sports, inter-scholastic athletics, andHealth and Physical Education class activities in accordance with each student’s gender identity. Coaches will work with and be supported by school staff to address each student’s accommodation needs and ensure safety.Students have the right to a safe change-room that corresponds to their gender identity. Transgender or gender-diverse students have the right to an accommodation that best meets the individual student’s particular needs."

"It is not an acceptable accommodation to deny a student the opportunity for Health and Physical Education. For example: not allowing the student to have Health and Physical Education; forcing the student to choose independent study; requiring a transgender or gender-diverse student to use the change room corresponding to the student’s sex assigned at birth."

"Schools should use gender inclusive language in order to reflect the diversity of genders in the school community. For example, there are gender-inclusive pronouns beyond “he/she” such as the singular use of“they” and using “folks” to address groups of people.Staff should be aware of the use of non-inclusive language and how it can exclude groups of people (e.g.the use of the word “you guys”)"

"All students can choose to wear appropriate clothing, informed by the OCDSB dress code policy, which matches their gender identity. School dress codes should not be gender specific, and should apply equally to all students, regardless of gender. The dress codes will be respectful of students who are gender creative, or who are in the process of transitioning."
