Gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender students in California are more than twice as likely to be harassed or assaulted at school based on their sexual orientation than for their race or ethnicity and four times more than they would be for a disability, according to new survey data released this week.

The data, released Thursday, comes from the California snapshot of the Gay, Lesbian & Straight Education Network’s 2013 National School Climate Survey, which was released in October.
