Transgender Task Force
Approached for a request to provide professional development in one district, the Achievement Initiatives discovered more work was needed. With the approval of the Superintendents, the Transgender Task Force was formed.
A collaborative initiative involving members of our team from Culture & Diversity to Health, this work continues with a goal of creating schools and classrooms inclusive to all students. The task force meets quarterly and maintains communication throughout the year. Professional Development, policy review, and community coordination are some of the functions of the task force. If you have questions, or would like to be added to our communications, please contact Mary Beno |
National advocate and school educator, Aidan Key of Gender Diversity, provided training and guidance as the task force examined everything from classroom practice to inclusive policies.
