"I started out with straight A's, now I'm not even straight."

This senior quote was removed from the yearbook by Vice Principal Justin Sanderson for being "too offensive". Please join our movement if you believe that it's ok to be gay, and homosexual students at our school shouldn't have to hide or be ashamed of their identity.

The administration continues to ignore our messages but they cannot ignore the growing number of people demanding change. Copy the link to this petition and text it to three friends right now to keep the pressure on them. We need to show them that our community does not accept censorship.

February 18, 2018

The momentum behind this petition is undeniable and shows that our school is ready for real change. Post the link on Facebook today and email the principal to tell them that censorship has no place in our yearbook.

Being an LGBT child myself, I find it extremely offensive that a school would do that to any of their students.

We should be aloud to be open about our sexuality. Especially when it's our lives not theirs.

This is ridiculous and completely unfair to this student and any other who makes the difficult decision to be open about who they are. No one should ever be shut down for sharing an important part of who they are!

Isn't this freedom of speech? You know, a basic human right? We shouldnt have to petition for this. Especially when what Danny said wasnt even inappropriate. Wankers.

I think we should be able to be open about our sexuality’s there should be no reason why we shouldn’t be able to. We should all be happy about who we are
