That's pretty cool. I thought it's be important to mention this, because during our interview she mentioned that she has worked for GLSEN.

Like trying to figure out how to help students who're falling behind in certain classes be able to catch up with their classmates and be at the same level of understanding as them, she wants to help students with this because when she was in grade school this actually happened a lot to her when she was younger and she felt it was very hard to catch up again with the rest of her class. She also speaks up about gun violence to try to keep schools safe from further school shootings. She also told me that she'd like to become a teacher, preferably a first grade teacher.]]> 2019-03-19 22:19:04 UTC https://padlet.com/ofurze2024/5ejr3wmrwqcz/wish/343105883 ofurze2024 https://padlet.com/ofurze2024/5ejr3wmrwqcz/wish/343107968 Queer Fish Center, which helps K-12 students in the LGBTQ+ community fit in better.
