If this problem is already such a big deal with just the one student, it will become much worse if there are more students like Teryn unless the parents and superintendant come to an understanding and to a solution.]]> 2022-03-21 19:19:51 UTC https://padlet.com/awhitin2/3zugtnh3o1jz3p9p/wish/2106041490 awhitin2 https://padlet.com/awhitin2/3zugtnh3o1jz3p9p/wish/2106048245 The most equitabe outcome of this scenario would be that everyone would accept Teryn for who she is and give her the rights of using the girls bathroom that she deserves. She should also not be harassed for her sexual oriantation and should be respected as any other person is.]]> 2022-03-21 19:24:19 UTC https://padlet.com/awhitin2/3zugtnh3o1jz3p9p/wish/2106048245 awhitin2 https://padlet.com/awhitin2/3zugtnh3o1jz3p9p/wish/2106052492 An immediate response to this problem could be getting parents or staff that are on Teryn's side to talk to the superintendant about the unfairness of the situation and have them explain that this is an example of inequality and is a problem that leads to bullying. The superintendant needs to be aware of the problems her "solution" will create.]]> 2022-03-21 19:27:21 UTC https://padlet.com/awhitin2/3zugtnh3o1jz3p9p/wish/2106052492 awhitin2 https://padlet.com/awhitin2/3zugtnh3o1jz3p9p/wish/2106057093 Something that the school could do to inflict a longer-term policy that is in favor of Teryn's situation would be to have some sort of class or even assembly that talks about the iportance of acceptance and sexual orientation so that the students can become aware of what Teryn is facing and why what is happening to her is wrong. If the students begin to understand that the situation is unfair, they will be able to relay that information and knowledge to their families. This will encourage them to want to find a better solution as well.]]> 2022-03-21 19:30:59 UTC https://padlet.com/awhitin2/3zugtnh3o1jz3p9p/wish/2106057093 awhitin2 https://padlet.com/awhitin2/3zugtnh3o1jz3p9p/wish/2106063213 I think the most effectual plan of action for this case would to hold an assembly that talks about includence and acceptance among all people of all sexual orientations and teaching them what they can do to support one another and lift each other up instead of bring each other down. This will hopefully have an effect on the students and the staff so that they are more willing to accept Teryn for who she is and give her the rights she deserves. The superintendant should also be present for this assembly so that she can learn from her mistake and help the school come to a better conclusion on what to do if a problem like this ever comes up again. ]]> 2022-03-21 19:35:41 UTC https://padlet.com/awhitin2/3zugtnh3o1jz3p9p/wish/2106063213
