Was this a mean girls issue that impacted a Dean’s decision to come to work? That doesn’t seem like strong leadership or modeling for the girls. More info?

When you're in high school, there's a huge emphasis on homecoming, prom, etc.

We're a two-mom family and I don't have a problem with any of this (minus the toddler shirts, that one's weird). But it's pretty wild to say we "promote" homosexuality by existing or maybe having a rainbow flag when our entire culture is set up to celebrate straight people.

You are exaggerating. Nobody is celebrating heterosexual pairings lol. My daughter went to the prom without a date. She was fine. So were those who had dates and those who chose not to attend. Not sure why you consider this a celebration of heterosexuality. If you want the parades and flags, go to public school.

Not in US at all. Each division is completely different

DP but I think the person who responded to your “this” was agreeing with you, and the “do you not believe…” was a generic “you” aimed at the fragile people who object to rainbow flags.

I wrote "THIS" because I believe that love is love no matter what and I support the LBGTQ+ community. I'm sorry if it didn't come across that way or I misunderstood the message that I replied to. I'll work towards the future to better my reading comprehension.
