Abstrakt: Though bullying is a near universal experience for middle school students at some point, LGBTQ + students experience additional stress and poorer academic outcomes than their peers do. This qualitative study interviewed six middle school principals from rural, suburban and urban schools. Data collection for this study included two semi-structured interviews over a four-month period. Data analysis included a constant comparative method using minority stress prior-research themes. Principals noted that many of the LGBTQ + students experienced prejudice and stigma. They also stated, that some of the LGBTQ + concealed their identity and at times internalized their phobias.
