I’ve put together a brief, 10-question survey that I’d like educators and administrators to answer.
The survey is 100 percent anonymous. I’m not interested in who you are; I’m interested in what grade you teach, the state you live in and what you know about protecting LGBTQ students.
The results will be woven into a longer piece I’m writing about addressing LGBTQ bullying in America’s schools.
If I publish results, it would happen on my blog; but, currently, my only goal is to include my findings in the aforementioned piece.
I really just want to get a feel for what teachers currently know so that I may be able to:
- Help them learn more;
- Help parents/primary caregivers of LGBTQ students better communicate with teachers should a problem arise; and
- Urge districts and school to do more to educate faculty and staff about LGBTQ bullying.
I ask credentialed educators and administrators from across the U.S. who are currently or have recently taught in grades K-12 to participate.
If you are outside of this demographic, but want to discuss LGBTQ bullying in schools, please email me directly at raisingmyrainbow@gmail.com instead of taking the survey.
Please share this link far and wide. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/9X987MM

Not qualified to take the survey, but I thought this school-related item was great –

Unfortunately I’m not a teacher and not in the US but I’m looking forward to reading what you come up with after you get all the results from your survey.

Lori, thank you for doing this! I am a school boand member, is this survey broad enough for that?
Also, I nominated you for the One Lovely Blog award. If you’re interested in accepting, feel free to head over here: https://rachelahanson.wordpress.com/2016/05/11/one-lovely-blog-award/
By what date do you want the surveys completed? Thanks!
I’ll keep the survey open as long as people want to complete it. No firm deadline is set. 🙂
Reblogged this on K. L. Romo and commented:
I’m very interested in the results of this survey. If you are, or have recently been, a teacher of kids through grade 12, please consider taking the survey. Acceptance is grown from the ground up.
I have shared on Twitter! I hope you get lots of traffic on survey!
