High School French teacher resigns after furious parents slam his drag performance for students wearing a blue sequined dress and red heeled boots as part of a ‘Fine Arts Week’

A high school teacher has resigned from a Wisconsin school after receiving a backlash from parents when a clip of him dancing in drag for students went viral on social media.

French teacher Matt Kashdan of Middleton-Cross Plains Area School District in Wisconsin performed for students in drag as part of a 'Fine Arts Week', dancing in red-heeled boots and a sparkling blue dress.

The teacher danced to Ariana Grande and Lady Gaga’s song 'Rain on me' as part of the talent show, which had returned after a hiatus.

'People were calling me a groomer, people were calling me a pedophile, people are calling me a narcissist,' Kashdan said, branding the criticism 'homophobic'.

The drag act prompted a wave of criticism from parents who said it was ‘shameful’ and questioned why it would be part of a ‘fine arts’ performance.

A clip of the performance went viral on social media, prompting at least one parent to complain, according to Fox News.

'This is shameful and just as bad as switch genders day for spirit week back when I went to school in the 80's', said one social media user on Twitter after watching the video.

Other online sleuths wrote upon seeing the video that the school was not an appropriate venue for the performance.

'Why aren't these parents pulling their kids and suing?!?! Kids are there to be EDUCATED and the state has a responsibility to do so,' said another.

The parent whose child attends the school wrote into a local conservative radio show t say: 'What kind of educators thought this was appropriate? Drag shows are "fine arts"? If a teacher is a pole dancer or stripper, can they also perform for my children?'

“Kashdan is also studying to receive a Masters of Education in Global Studies in Education.”

“He is married to a teaching assistant at University of Wisconsin-Madison, with the couple tying the knot in 2018.”


Wonder if he is married to a he or a she?

Barf Alert.

Truly bizarre. The principal and superintendent who allowed this travesty should be fired as well.

I’ll just say this....with a degree in French literature, and getting dumped like this...it’s hard to figure what your next job will be...other than selling real estate, or running a shift at the airport car-rental shop.

FTA:
‘People were calling me a groomer, people were calling me a pedophile, people are calling me a narcissist,’ Kashdan said, branding the criticism ‘homophobic’.

~~~~~~~~~
Guessing the person he claims to be married to is also a he.

Sung to the tune of FLIPPER

We call them GROOMERS
GROOMERS

GROOMERS at 3

Hiding from you
Hiding from me

And we know GROOMERS lives in a classroom of preteens
,
Flying there-under, under the sheets

GROOMERS love the kids from 3

Ever so snide and creepy is ze,

Tricks it will do when children appear,
And how they cringe when it’s near!

They call them GROOMER, GROOMER, Grooming the 3’s,

No-one you see, is creepier than ze,

And we know GROOMERS
, lives in a world full of secrets
Flying there-under, under their sheets.

Cross dressing for comedy purposes has been around for a long time. In the Navy, we cross dressed the day before crossing the Equator.

But this guy was wearing a dress that pretty much revealed one buttock. It wasn't meant for comedy, it was meant to be sexy. Even if a female teacher had performed like this, wearing that dress, she'd be in trouble.
