TALLAHASSEE, Fla. — Tuesday, the Leon County School Board will hear the superintendent's recommendation for approval of the membership and by-laws of the Leon County Schools Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, and Queer Support Guide for School Personnel Advisory Committee.
The board previously unanimously approved to create a committee to finalize a LGBTQ+ Support Guide that aims to help administrators guide students on like topics.
Hanna said in the January meeting that the guide would not be taught in classrooms or be used to indoctrinate students, but rather be used to allow school counselors and administrators to answer important questions or concerns a child may have about LGBTQ+ topics.
It was stated that the committee would "include parents, students, district staff and community members picked by Hanna, complete with suggestions from the board as well."
Tuesday's meeting will present the bylaws for the committee, which can be found in full below:
