Queer Affinity Family

Queer Affinity Family (affectionally referred to as Queer AF) is the LGBTQ+ employee resource group for certificated, classified, and managerial faculty/staff of FUHSD. The doctoral research work of Dr James Aguirre, Homestead English Teacher/Dept Lead & Site Professional Development Lead, this group first and foremost serves as a justice, equity, diversity, and inclusion (JEDI)-focused community, one that crosses sites and strata, that: serves as a place of healing and comradery, examines concepts from academic research such as (cis)heteroprofessionalism (Mizzi 2013; 2016), and serves a nexus and thinktank for ways in which our community can serve both queer adults and queer students in our care. We meet biannually, once in Fall and once in Spring. Contact James at james_aguirre@fuhsd.org for any questions you may have.
