District awards middle schoolers $2,000 for student drag show
Middle school students at Whatcom Middle School will perform in drag in the coming weeks. And the district is paying them to do it.
Bellingham Public Schools held a contest called Think BIG. A group of judges awarded up to $2,500 in funds to club leaders pitching innovative ideas on using the funds. Students said they would build storm gardens, provide serapes to graduating seniors, and even help meet student transportation needs to and from school.
The Gender Sexuality Alliance Club (GSA) had a controversial idea: a student drag show.
