PRYDE: The Rainbow Club

PRYDE is OTHS's GSA. We meet once a week to discuss current social justice issues and to develop new and interesting ways to make OTHS a better place for everyone in the school. PRYDE is supportive of all individuals and always welcomes new members.

What is a GSA

A GSA is a gay straight alliance. It is a supportive group of individuals made up of both people that self identify with an alternative sexual identity (LGBTQ) and straight people. It is a group that meets to examine social issues and aims to enrich the community. It is an organization that welcomes anyone who wants to be supportive of every member of the community; not in spite of their differences but because their diverse individual traits help to enrich our community as a whole.
