Trans student force to be called by other name at Allen High graduation

Dear MoveOn member,

I'm Isabella Alfie, a MoveOn member in Allen, TX, and I started a petition to Allen ISD- Dr. Niven, Superintendent of Allen Schools, which says:

Help transgender student graduate with integrity.

A Transgender student Jay Alfie is a student at Allen High School. He is graduating this year and Allen ISD refuses to announce Jay during the commencement ceremony, instead calling out his Dead Name (legal name before transitioning). The parents have met with the appropriate people to try to get this resolved, but leadership in Allen ISD will not agree to announce Jay. Let's see if we can change their minds.

Click here to add your name to this petition, and then pass it along to your friends.

Thanks!
