If you aren't prepared to do that- if you aren't prepared to be an advocate for the students you teach, regardless of ANYTHING, then you shouldn't be an educator. Most of the people working at North achieve this. Others, like Sullivan, in my opinion? They simply miss the mark.

However, I attribute the success that I had in high school as an openly LGBTQ+ student to the teachers that Sullivan so loudly (and so wrongly) claims are "indoctrinating" us. Those are the folks who simply look out for *every* student- no matter what.

GOP leadership in Kansas believes that Medicaid SHOULDN’T be expanded in Kansas, even though KS is one of ten states left to adopt Medicaid Expansion: “they should just get a job”.
