Stella & Jess: Gender Diversity at School

This week we’re highlighting one of the videos from our interview with Stella and Jess from the Skinner Family. Stella and Jess talk about wanting schools to have a place for discussions about gender and gender identity. By anticipating having students in your class who are not cisgender, Jess notes that we can be more inclusive of everyone. Jess brings up an excellent point: by focusing less on accommodating our trans and gender non-conforming students, and instead anticipating them in our school environments, we can shift the narrative from accommodation to celebration.
