This parent couldn't be happier

I am thrilled the new school is opening and in 2010 (he is entering 5th grade this fall) my son will be happily putting in his application as well. He face so much bulling now for not being a "typical boy" and I know he would thrive someplace where is differences are more readily accepted.

Alliance School

My daughter attends Alliance High School in Milwaukee, and she is not gay. She has many friends at Alliance, both gay and straight. She came to Alliance after being bullied in middle and high school. Alliance is very small and offers a safe learning environment with lots of one on one attention. The staff deals with the drama that goes with being an adolescent and keeps the students from being cruel to each other. The majority of the students at Alliance are nice children who just want to be allowed to go to school and learn without being harassed.

I think this is an amazing oppurtunity. For kids that always got picked on because of what they belive is right for them, they are going to cherish this with their own kind.

In response to "I Don't Believe Middle Schoolers Are Gay" post:

It's like saying, "I feel you're a confused heterosexual." How would you know how each and every one of these individual students feel? Do you ask them? Granted, yes, some MIGHT be confused but you are talking generally and NO ONE'S feelings can be clumped into a -general- category.

What information do you possess that these kids wouldn’t feel the way they do based on different upbringing? You are ill informed, ignorant, and close-minded to make such a hasty remark.

It’s fine to have your own opinion but what support do you have? And don’t state it like it’s a fact because you know so much about what these kids feel, how these parents are, or what it’s like in any sense. You are insulting feelings, kids, parents, memories, struggles, and many other things you don’t know about.
