In our world today the issue of homophobia is a big deal. People are treating poorly and not given equal chances because of their sexuality. Unfortunately, this is true in schools as well. Kids can be very cruel to other students because of the fact that they are different. It is so sad, every student should be able to go to school and have fun, enjoy their experience. Students bullying other students can truly effect the way they think of school and ultimately learning as well. I went to St. Ignatius High School, thankfully Ignatius did a good job of treating everyone well. The students and teachers did a good job treating everyone with respect. St. Ignatius did have an extra curricular program for gay students and other students who were worried about any types of social injustices. I hope that I teach at a school were everyone is treated fairly and the students very much enjoy coming to school. I hate seeing anybody be treated poorly. Everybody deserves the chance to go to school and be who they are and be comfortable in their own skin.
