Still think “they’d never actually…”? Yeah, they would. A beloved teacher is likely to be let go for addressing a student by their preferred name.

The Brevard County School Board representative for District 4 - including Satellite High School - is Matt Susin. He can be reached via email at susin.matthew@brevardschools.org, or via phone (321) 684-9735.

But call him Matthew, I guess, since that’s the name on his birth certificate.
