The first book of its kind internationally, Border Sexualities, Border Families in Schools explores the experiences of bisexual students, mixed sexual orientation families, and polyamorous families in schools. For the first time, a book foregrounds the voices and experiences of these students and families who are ""falling into the gaps"" or on the borders of a school's gay/straight divide in anti-homophobia policies and programs, and schools recognizing families as meaning either heterosexual couples, or, increasingly, homosexual couples.

"This book reviews timely, pragmatic interventions and strategies to support LGBTQ students in K-12 schools. Where formal programs affirming diversity of gender expression and sexual orientation are not yet in place, contributors provide insights and practical tips for creating a positive, safe school environment. Topics include how stigma based on gender expression or sexual orientation can affect children and adolescents in school performance and risk-taking behavior, and how schools can flip the narrative on bullying and victimization to one that promotes strengths and school connectedness. Teacher and school staff training issues are also addressed, along with suggestions for advocacy on the small scale and at local, regional, and state systems levels. In this book school counselors and psychologists, administrators, teachers, and other community stakeholders will find steps they can take to translate and implement the ever-growing body of scientific theory and research on equitable education of gender minority and sexual minority children, youth, and families"--

"Mika Alison s'appuie sur son parcours de transition personnel (alors qu'elle était déjà enseignante) et sur sa pratique professionnelle quotidienne pour nous livrer quelques éléments d'analyse sur le milieu scolaire, tirés de son vécu. Si l'école entretient encore parfois un rapport ambigu avec les transidentités et plus largement avec les questions LGBT+, des avancées certaines doivent être soulignées. Bien entendu, il reste du chemin à parcourir - et l'autrice s'y emploie, que ce soit en tant que professeure, qu'experte associée sur les questions LGBT+ au sein de son académie ou par le biais de son engagement associatif. Ce témoignage rare, courageux et émouvant, est l'occasion rêvée pour découvrir le regard posé par notre système scolaire - et, plus largement, notre société - sur les personnes transgenres, à travers le vécu et les analyses d'une "transeignante"." --
