BEAVERTON, OR (KPTV) - Students at Five Oaks Middle School who put up banners with messages that promote tolerance of gay students are upset after the school's principal took them down.
... A parent who wished to remain anonymous said he emailed the principal to complain about the signs, which he felt were inappropriate.
The parent said the school isn't open to other beliefs and ways of life, such as celebrating Christmas, so this sign shouldn't be allowed either.
Mina Cash-Valdez is part of the school's gay-straight alliance and helped put up the signs. Cash-Valdez said she doesn't think being gay should be compared to celebrating a holiday, and she's upset the signs were taken down.
