Parents in Elk Grove, California, are livid after a Pleasant Grove High School assembly featured a drag show that they say was inappropriate and mandatory.

Angry parents vented to local media and members of the Elk Grove Unified School District Board of Education.

“I’ve been a part of this district since 1983, and in 30 years, I have never felt betrayal like I felt on Friday,” a parent named Amy said at aAmy said her child was “mortified” and texted her from inside the “mandatory” assembly.

While some parents made the narrow argument that they didn’t object to the drag show in and of itself but ratherthat’s been deployed in school culture war fights over LGBTQ issues.

Hopefully the parents will hold the board of education accountable.

Disgusting!!!

the left wants to give kids an education, teach critical thinking and promote American Values like tolerance, and respect for diversity. the right wants to indoctrinate kids in a racist version of history, and their fascist ideology.

Perhaps they should move to a red state like Texas or Florida.

Hi leaving the word “student lead“ out of your headline is way beyond piss poor journalism. To everyone involved in putting this article together, why did you get into journalism? Surely it wasn’t this.

Lighten up Francis

Nope. No grooming our kids

Move to Tennessee.

Elk Grove board of education endorses grooming

You don't need to get livid, they don't care about that. They expect that. What you do is pull your kid out and figure out another solution. That they understand.

Hey what were you expecting in a woke State

Shouldn’t have be mandatory and parents should have been notified. If these kids want to do drag show, do it on own time. And those adults who support them can facilitate.

I feel so sad for the young people who expressed themselves in love and solidarity with others facing hate and were rejected by adults in their own community. My heart goes out to them.

The final quote was interesting. Was there any follow to that answer?
