LGBTQ+ student rights

LGBTQ+ student rights ensure all students are treated fairly and safely regardless of their sexual orientation or gender identity. These rights include protection from discrimination and harassment, access to same-gender facilities, the ability to express their identity, and participation in school activities. Schools are encouraged to create inclusive environments that respect diversity and promote understanding. Laws and policies vary by location, but generally, they aim to support students' well-being, academic success, and equal opportunities, while respecting their privacy and dignity.
