This report from GLSEN (Gay,
Lesbian, and Straight Education Network) takes a close look at the
problems faced by transgender students, who have some of the most
horrifying crimes committed against them. This article was also made
with the help of several transgender persons, so the language is more
politically correct than some other resources. This is a great source
for transgender-related statistics.

This link from GLSEN (Gay,
Lesbian, and Straight Education Network) is presented on the host site,
instead of linking directly to the report. On the blue sidebar on the
site, there are links to not only the full report, but also the
executive summary, and individual reports from ten different states.
This is a very useful, well-organized source, especially for statistics.
I would recommend using this as a main source for LGBTQ+ statistics in
education. It also includes statistics about underlying problems: why
students are harassed, why so much bullying is not reported, ect.

THE EXPERIENCES OF LESBIAN, GAY, BISEXUAL AND TRANSGENDER MIDDLE SCHOOL STUDENTS
This "research brief" from GLSEN (Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network) is an excellent resource for statistics about bullying and other difficulties in American middle schools (junior high). Some of the report focuses on the availability of in-school LGBTQ+ resources, and works to compare some situations to the statistics from high schools on the same issues.Length: Short (under 25 pages).

The Principle's Perspective
This report from GLSEN (Gay, Lesbian, and Straight Education Network) shows excellent statistics on how principles of elementary, middle, and high schools see the treatment of LGBTQ+ students. This article clearly shows disparities between the perspectives of LGBTQ+ youth and the figures of authority above them, and thus should be used as a supplemental source.Length: Long (over 100 pages).
