Clubs
Gender-Sexuality Alliance
Meetings are in room 127 Tuesdays and Thursdays before school.
As a GSA (Gender-Sexuality Alliance) Club, we aim to provide support, create an all-inclusive, hate-free environment, and to take action to create and nurture an accepting environment school-wide. We endeavor to provide emotional support and empathy to those who may have transphobic and homophobic homes and those who may be victims of bullying and harassment due to their queer identities. We strive to create an inclusive, confidential, and safe environment for those in our student body by keeping closeted identities confidential and normalizing the use of personal pronouns. We aspire to extend this environment to the entire student body, through normalizing LGBTQ+ identities, actively working against stereotyping, combating slurs and discrimination, and normalizing pronouns and names that differ from those assigned at birth. All DHS students are invited to join our GSA; we need allies with open minds and open hearts to assist us in this endeavor.
Open to all students interested.
