PFLAG-Olympia
The Not-So-Straight Truth About Our Schools!
What’s really going on in our schools for GLBTQ kids?
A candid conversation about the school environment for GLBTQ youth,
with local School District Representatives talking with us about diversity.
There is a small change in the format of our meeting for this event.
This meeting starts at 2:00 P.M. with introductions, announcements and social time, and the program will begin at 3:00 P.M.
We have a poster about this program, and I hope you can use it to help us get the word out.
It’s online here. (pdf format)
