How can educators ensure all students—regardless of gender—feel safe, seen, and supported in their classrooms?Transgender and nonbinary students are at risk in our K-12 schools. These students face almost constant challenges in educational spaces and navigate institutional practices that were not designed to accommodate their gender identities.It’s OK to Say “They” addresses some of the pervasive challenges that can impact every part of a student’s day:When teachers refuse to acknowledge a student’s gender identityWhen students are assigned to sit by gender in class or on the busWhen a student is not allowed to use facilities or changing rooms that align with their gender identitiesWhen a curriculum does not acknowledge transgender and nonbinary identitiesWhen teachers and school policies use exclusionary gender-based languageIncorporating the real-life experiences of transgender and nonbinary students, It’s OK to Say “They” offers educators practical tools they can use to foster an inclusive environment for transgender and nonbinary students. This easy-to-use guide is a resource for educators and administrators seeking to be better allies to students.
