telling my teachers...

[Em0bxy]

So lately I've been going by Rae, He/Him. I only have a month left to school but I want my teachers to know. Is it worth it to tell them at this point? It's only a month. Then the beginning of the next school year I could just tell those teachers, but I don't exactly know. I also don't exactly know how I'd tell them that I'm going by Rae and he/him, when all the school year I've been Ashton They/Them. I need advice...

I emailed my teachers and now I'm having anxiety lol. I said:
Hello 7th Grade Teachers,

As the school year comes to a close, I wanted to reach out and share something important. Throughout the year I have been going by Ashton and using they/them pronouns in your classes. However, I would like to update you on my preferred name and pronouns.

My name is now Rae, and I use he/him pronouns. I would greatly appreciate it if you could use this name and these pronouns moving forward.

Thank you very much for your understanding and support.

Best regards,
Rae Parker

So I hope that gets good reactions and terrified!!!

Hi, this is great what you did. I wish you all the best with this.

All of my teachers reacted greatly and are calling me Rae now!
