ALLIANCE

https://sss.sd54.bc.ca/wp-content/uploads/2023/03/gh.jpg

This is a group of students who support equality of diverse expressions of gender and sexual-orientation. We are an inclusive group regardless of one’s orientation and seek to create a safe environment in the school free of homophobic bullying and intimidation. We post educational information on our bulletin board and help observe key days in support of LGBTQ (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender/Two-Spirited, Queer/Questioning) awareness, as well as provide a comfortable forum for dialogue. These are sensitive issues in a youth’s life, and also part of honouring basic human rights. Perry Rath is the sponsor teacher.
