Transgender and Gender Nonconforming Students:
Leland & Gray is committed to providing a safe and supportive school environment that allows all students, of all identities, to progress academically and developmentally. The rights and the education of transgender and gender nonconforming students are protected through our district’s Hazing, Harassment, & Bullying policy and any concerns or observations are mistreatment towards students should be reported immediately. The Leland & Gray community is committed to continued learning and more comprehensive support for transgender and gender nonconforming students. Support for New Americans:
At Leland & Gray, we have a responsibility to ensure that all of our students feel safe and supported and we work hard to create a school culture that is responsive to all of the students and families. Under Federal law, undocumented children and young adults have the same right to attend public primary and secondary schools as do all U.S. citizens and permanent residents and, under state law, all Vermont children, including undocumented children, are required to attend school until the mandated age of 16. In order for Leland & Gray to meet this obligation, we are committed to going beyond merely telling families to enroll their student(s), but also working proactively to ensure that they feel safe, supported, and welcomed. Thus, Leland & Gray does not:
deny/terminate a student’s enrollment on the basis of actual or perceived immigration status,
treat a student differently to verify legal residency in the U.S.,
engage in any practices that have the effect of discouraging students from enrolling or attending school based on their immigration status,
require students or their parents to disclose their immigration status or inquire of students or parents in ways that may expose their undocumented status, and
deny or terminate a student’s enrollment due to the student’s or parent’s failure to provide a social security number.
