Transgender Success

May 20th, 2007 6:37 am MDT

I recently graduated from Police Foundations at St.Clair college at the Top of my Class. My entire class including the teachers knew that I was transgender by my choice of attire. At first there was some snickering and behind the back comments but eventually it died off, and a vast majority accepted me for who I was. I had one teacher who was very compassionate about helping me to feel comfortable and she gave sound advice to me on a regular basis to keep me thinking about my future.

This goes to show that even though you are different from the rest you still can succeed, you just have to look ahead to ensure you keep on the track. As well as there are many people out there that will support you, just keep faith in yourself. Best wishes to everyone in their futures.
