Elementary School Principal Praised After Coming Out As Transgender

In a heartfelt letter, Shannon Daniels opens up about her journey to authenticity.

A Massachusetts elementary school principal says she is “at peace” after coming out to students, parents and faculty as transgender.

Shannon Daniels opened up about her gender identity to her community at Swampscott’s Stanley Elementary School in a Feb. 6 letter, USA Today reported.

“After confronting a series of challenges last fall, I let myself imagine the possibility of being completely honest with myself and those around me,” Daniels’ letter, which can be viewed in full here, read. “I can now say it: I am transgender. For me, that means I identify as both a male and female, and I plan to move toward presenting myself and identifying as female.”

Calling the decision “intensely personal,” she added, “I know there will be questions, and I am aware of the likelihood that my transition won’t necessarily be easy for everyone. I will do everything in my power to ensure that there is no negative impact on our school community.”

Prior to making the announcement, Daniels sought advice from Asa Sevelius, principal of Heath School in Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, who came out as transgender last year.

Sevelius’s advice? “Stay awesome at your job. At the end of the day, the school community just wants you to show up and do your best for your students and teachers,” he said, according to the Boston Herald. “If you can do that, it’ll help people come along on your journey with you.”

Daniels said she will use her middle name, Shannon, as her first name because “it is used by both males and females, perfectly denoting my fluid gender identity.” Students, she said, should continue to refer to her as Principal Daniels, but the pronouns “she,” “he,” and “they” are all acceptable to use.

Though The Salem News pointed out that Daniels’ announcement was met with some pushback on social media, she has instead decided to focus on the support she’s received. One of her biggest advocates, she said, has been Swampscott Superintendent Pamela Angelakis, who praised her “courage, honesty and transparency” in a public letter.

Okay, I know it's obvious that a lot of male to female transsexuals naturally don't look like they're even trying, but...

I mean, he's literally not trying.

He doesn't even have long hair, wear clown makeup, or talk in a falsetto. All he did was demand to be called Shannon.

There was literally no reason to tell the whole school he was transgender. First, students rarely even can identify their principal outside of school-wide lectures. so it doesn't even matter. Second, it's nothing the students even need to know--you wouldn't make a speech over the school speakers saying you're bisexual or something, so why is this even important?

These aren't behaviors that anybody would want as the authority figure of the school, let alone somebody the school board wants in the person representing them. You can be whatever you want as long as it doesn't interfere with your work. But when you decide to advertise it, especially something so personal and controversial at an elementary school of all places, that's when it becomes a problem.

now remember girls, don't hesitate to talk about your 'girly' problems with me. we're all girls here, I won't tell hehe

Wish these kinds of people would keep their kinks away from kids. He's in a position of authority over these youngsters. They don't have any right to say fuck this bullshit, and if they do it'll be all 'oh, they just need educating'. It's abusive as hell. Demanding the kids call him 'she' just for his kicks is sick.

I see no pictures of troons, just some dude.

thanks whipipo

So, this geezer likes dressing as a woman, so he declared himself one.

Also "fluid gender identity" means that this person can drop this whenever it is convenient, which is also why they have made no effort to present as female to the press photographers.

I bet retirement will come sooner than later.

 

[Unsuspecting Koala Bear]

this has potential for being an interesting transition

Any bets the principal was rubbing some authority the wrong way over an issue and is suddenly trans so that any discipline or criticism he was potentially facing will now suddenly be bigoted and evil?
