EDTalks: Creating Gender Inclusive Schools

Описание: As the transgender community gains more visibility, school districts across the nation are working to reimagine systems that were not originally designed for these students. Learn about gender inclusive policies and practices implemented by Minneapolis Public Schools (MPS) and how LGBTQA+ inclusion work produces better outcomes for us all.

Creating Gender Inclusive Schools by Jason Bucklin was part of the March 2019 #EDTalksMN event on Creating Inclusive Classrooms.

Jason Bucklin is the LGBTQA+ Program Coordinator for MPS and has served the district’s students, families and staff for seven years. With over 15 years of experience in LGBTQA+ youth advocacy, Jason has overseen the development and implementation of gender inclusive polices both at MPS and across Minnesota. Outside of his work in education, Jason is a photographer supporting queer-identified performers in the Twin Cities.
