Parents claim they were not warned ahead of time that the assembly would include a drag performance, and they said the assembly was mandatory to attend.
The assembly – meant to showcase different cultures and backgrounds – was mandatory for students. But some parents said their children were uncomfortable and should have been allowed to leave.
“They were not transparent, and it [the assembly] was mandatory,” mom Heidi, who did not provide her last name, said. School district leaders said in a statement that “all performances at the multicultural assembly were approved by school staff and administration.”However, not everyone thinks the performance was inappropriate. Beverly Kearney with Sacramento’s Love is Love movement said she sees nothing wrong with it.
At the center of the debate is whether performing in drag sexualized the students who chose to perform.
