Hear from a Student
Lisa (Bucci) Cante
"My primary goal as a teacher is to make sure that my students feel safe to be themselves. In high school, many students feel pressured to act a certain way, to look a certain way, to dress a certain way. They’re struggling with gender and sexual identity. It’s hard to wake up and be yourself if you don't know who that is."
