Which high schools in Massachusetts have GSAs? Our new Massachusetts Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth has informed us they do not have a list of GSAs in the state -- though it's their job to work directly with them. So we'll publish the best list we have, from GLSEN's "Day of Silence" participating schools list (from 2005), updated by input from our activists around the state, plus info from an out-of-date Mass. Dept. of Education web page (still posted on 7-28-07). Interesting that GLSEN (behind the "Day of Silence") has stopped posting its list of participating high schools shortly after we publicized their web page, though they do now say there are 242 GSAs in Massachusetts. We only have 209 schools on this list; so the reality is even worse than it appears here! We now await corrections from the Commission on Gay and Lesbian Youth ... and GLSEN. (For lists of GSAs in other states, check out Mission America's list, also compiled from GLSEN's earlier information.)
