The SSS GSA is an alliance of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, Two Spirit, questioning, intersex and straight youth. Our goal is to provide students across the gender and sexuality spectrum a safe place within the school community for socializing and support. We are committed to acceptance and fair treatment of all youth.

Cool Stuff!

Thank you to the Pride Education Network for awarding our GSA a $300 bursary for our advocacy of LGBTQ youth.  Well done Sardis Gay Straight Alliance!

Thank you to Mr. Testa for his support of our upcoming trip to the OUTShine Conference in Toronto...the school has donated $500 to help cover our costs.

Check out Kate Reid's website...she tweeted about us!  She's in Ontario now, touring with her Queer Across Canada album.  She also gave us FREE download cards for her last two albums.  Mrs. Klassen still has a few left, so come to C125 if you want some great free music.

Location Change for Thursday April 25

Mrs. Klassen has a case conference at lunch next week, so Maecyn will be sharing some videos (a couple heartwarming, a few very funny) with you in the McAstocker Theater on April 25.  Bring your lunch and have some laughs!

Great meeting today!

Thank you for facilitating a wonderful discussion with Mr. Testa today at lunch.  We offered our proposal and advocacy for a gender neutral student bathroom.  Mr. Testa shared our concerns and added his thoughts regarding student safety and school policy.  All in all, it looks like an excellent compromise will be reached for implementation in the fall.  Congratulations :)
