At Hammond High School, we live our motto, “Where people are important”.  We believe ALL people are important.  We are committed to providing an educational and social environment that affirms and promotes an inclusive, equitable space which values diversity. Keep up on what is going on in the larger HCPSS Pride community at their website.

 

​LGBT Studies Course

We were the first school to run an LGBT Studies course in the fall of the 2022-2023 school year!  You can sign up to take this half credit social studies elective for next year!

 

HCPSS has in place comprehensive supports across all of our schools:

LGBTQIA+ Youth

Rainbow Representatives

Diversity, Equity & Inclusion

HaHS Rainbow Representative: Rainbow Representatives ensure that schools are allies and advocates for LGBTQIA+ students, staff, and families. The school Rainbow Representative attends quarterly meetings; receives and disseminates information regarding LGBTQIA+ topics of interest to the school and school community as appropriate; and provides instructional support for educators. If you have questions or concerns, please feel free to contact the Hammond High School Rainbow Representative, Amy Holly at amy_holly@hcpss.org

SAGA: The Sexuality And Gender Alliance is a safe place to discuss and advocate for students who are lesbian, gay, straight, bisexual, transgender, questioning, queer, intersex, asexual or those who support the LGBTQIA+ community, their struggles and their successes.  Just show up to meetings, no requirements. Come when you can!  Meets on Wednesdays during Bear Time from 9:00-9:30 am Location: TV Studio/Media Center.
