School climate survey for glbt students - Empty Closets - A safe online community for gay, lesbian, bisexual, transgendered people coming out

beckyg · 18th Jun 2009, 05:45 PM

Here is a survey (you will remain anonymous) that you should all take if you are in school. Its the GLSEN survey on school climate for glbt students. This survey is very important in getting laws passed that protect glbt kids from bullying and harrassment in schools.

Here is more info:

Help GLSEN (Gay, Lesbian and Straight Education Network) inform education policymakers and the public about what’s really going on in our nation’s schools by completing the 2009 National School Climate Survey, GLSEN’s sixth national survey about the experiences of lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender youth in school.

If you are lesbian, gay, bisexual, or transgender, attended high school or middle school sometime during the last school year (2008-2009) and are at least 13 years old, tell us about your experiences in school.

If you did not complete the entire school year you are still eligible. The survey is completely anonymous.

I took it.

lolz · 18th Jun 2009, 07:03 PM

whew. pretty long but I got it done

Alexander · 18th Jun 2009, 07:23 PM

Good survey overall, but I attend a boarding school, so I was unsure on how to answer some of the questions about community - like whether I was supposed to be talking about my home or school community.

Holy God, that took a long time. It may have been worth it, though. It was slightly awkward when they asked about my zip and school district, thought they were going to come find me or something! Haha then I realized it was for the end.

CrystalCat · 18th Jun 2009, 07:37 PM

Phew. Took a while. But i got it done

Nodnarb · 18th Jun 2009, 07:39 PM

Wow...that was longer than I expected. Hopefully it helps

beckyg · 18th Jun 2009, 07:40 PM

littledinosaurs · 18th Jun 2009, 07:45 PM

Alexander · 18th Jun 2009, 10:00 PM

Cause racism, sexim, and sexualityism are all related.

Amy · 18th Jun 2009, 11:02 PM

It was damn long, but I had a lot of shit too say.

It was a school climate survey.
I got, for lack of a better term, bullied for my religion and gender expression.

Oh, I love filling out surveys, but I go to school in England, so I probably can't fill out this one... ):

I love it too.

Hope some worldwide thing shows up...

**Martin** · 19th Jun 2009, 09:53 AM

I swear all surveys repeat themselves on those "How far do you agree" questionssss. It even asked for my age twice. Anyways, doneski!

That survey made me hungry. ^_^

Katherine · 19th Jun 2009, 10:09 AM

All done!

Jeez, I hope this helps at least a little bit. My school is THE worst place for gay people. The majority of students is pretty much prejudiced against anyone who's different. So I feel a little better now that I've taken a survey on it.

qisforquinton · 19th Jun 2009, 10:11 AM

whew, I did it, I hope it helped. You should def. share with us the results of it

carrie90 · 19th Jun 2009, 11:19 AM

Done do i get a sticker?
