True Colors

True Colors is a Gay/Straight Alliance (GSA) at Grasso that helps support, provide safety, and instill confidence in students who are struggling with their identity as a lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or questioning (LGBTQ) youth.  The club provides a safe place for students to meet, support each other, talk about issues related to sexual orientation and gender identity, and work to end homophobia.  It is designed to build a community at Grasso and lessen the isolation LGBTQ students might experience.  True Colors welcomes all students regardless of sexual orientation or gender identity.  The advisors for the club are Mr. Burns and Mrs. Clement.
