School starts on September eight for me. I'm going into tenth grade. Last year I came out at FtM to half of my friends, some girls in my class and some teachers. I also came out to some of my family. (My family rejected the fact.) I told my therapist and she told me she'd refer me to a gender therapist. (She will talk to my mother about it. I'm afraid! D:) Anyway I was thinking of coming out to my classmates maybe and tell my counselor to probably have my teachers call me by my preferred male pronouns. I pass pretty well I guess. Do you think it will be possible even if my mother doesn't accept me?

Yes. If you have good friends, that can help you get through the tough process of getting your parents educated about transgender people. A counselor at school can help you communicate with your parents. I'm glad your therapist is helping you, because your parents need to understand how hard it is on you that they're rejecting you.
Please get all the help you can. When parents don't accept your identity, it puts a lot of stress on you. Give yourself credit for being strong in tough circumstances.
