I am transitioning at school without my parents knowing.

I had also just made another topic in the intersex section.  https://www.susans.org/forums/index.php/topic,230441.0.html

So at school I am introducing myself as a girl.  And I tell anyone who knew me before I am transgender.  All of my teachers are fine with this.  And my parents do not really know about this.  A week ago my parents found out that I tried to do this, but the teachers keep calling me a boy when talking to my parents so they are kind of forgetting about it.  At school I make sure I wear certain clothing.  Most people think I look like a girl with shortish hair.  But I am very worried about getting a super short haircut.  Because then I couldn't possibly look like a girl.  They definitely do not want me to be living as a girl.  I am constantly feeling very bad, but this is making me feel a little bit better I guess.  But I am still just always waiting to be a girl both at home and at school.

I am absolutely in awe.  What courage and self-sufficiency.  I hope it all goes well.  I read your other topic but unfortunately I don't know enough to help.

Good on your teachers, and congratulations to you.  That takes a lot of guts.  Is there any adult at school who might be willing to stand up for you with your parents, the school counselor for preference?  The reason I ask is that some busybody is eventually going to tell your folks, and you shouldn't have to deal with the fallout alone.  If there's no one at school, do you have any other relatives who'd be willing to go to bat for you?

Yes.  There is an adult at school who would do that.  But my parents are so dedicated right now, they might even make me go to a different school.
