(CBN) – A high school located in southeastern Pennsylvania was scheduled to host a drag show during school hours on Wednesday.  It’s a part of an all-day event highlighting LGBTQ issues at the school. The College Fix reports the event at Landsdowne’s Penn Wood High School, titled “Coming Home,” is sponsored by the school’s Gay-Straight Alliance club. The drag show was being held during the afternoon with “Singing and Runway Performances,” followed up with a “History of Drag” after a video presentation about the 1969 Stonewall Riots. Morning sessions included “Being an LGBTQ Ally” and “LGBTQ+ Health Issues.”

An anonymous source within the William Penn School District notified The Fix about the program.  “There are many religious people in this community,” including an estimated 15-20 percent Muslim population at Penn Wood, according to the source. “Most of them have pulled their kids out of PWHS and sent them to parochial or Christian schools, but they still pay taxes to the school district. There are also many African Christians, who would be alarmed at this program.” READ MORE
