USE OF ALTERNATE NAME/GENDER
Students have the right to use the name and pronoun they choose. This is true whether or not the change has been made legally. Students who wish to be called by a different name or pronoun should fill out the TrekNorth Chosen Name/Pronoun Form. Once submitted, an email will be sent informing school personnel of the change. Students who have a parent or guardian sign the form will have their name/pronoun changed in the school information system. Changing one’s name and pronouns is a significant life decision and should not occur more than once in a student’s time in school. Requests for a second change will require a meeting to understand how to best support the student. Families should refer to TrekNorth’s Guidelines to Supoort Transgender Students for more information.
