Welcome to SQUASH@LCI

Hello Everyone!

Welcome to the new SQUASH blog.

First off - SQUASH stands for Straight and Queer Unite Against Sexual stereotyping and Homophobia.

Of course this name is old and may need to be updated....but it's a new group, a new year and the direction of this group is up to you!

SQUASH

ARE YOU HAPPY TO SEE THE RAINBOW FLAG FLYING OUTSIDE OF OUR SCHOOL? ARE YOU HAPPY THAT WE HAVE LAUNCHED A GENDER NEUTRAL BATHROOM? DO YOU THINK HOMOPHOBIA AND TRANSPHOBIA ARE SO YESTERDAY? DO YOU WANT TO HANG OUT WITH LIKE-MINDED PEOPLE, GO TO CONFERENCES AND FILMS, EAT PIZZA AND SNACKS AND MAYBE EVEN WORK TO IMPROVE THE SCHOOL COMMUNITY?

THEN COME TO SQUASH!!! (SQUASH STANDS FOR STRAIGHT AND QUEER UNITE AGAINST SEXUAL STEREOTYPING AND HOMOPHOBIA). WE ARE LAKESHORE’S LGBTQ YOUTH GROUP.
