School Hosts "Mock Gay Marriage Ceremony"
CRI has learned that a teacher-sponsored "mock gay marriage ceremony" is scheduled on the campus of Victorville's Silverado High School on Friday, February 11.
California Senator George Runner (R-17) and Assemblywoman Sharon Runner (R-36) drafted a letter to the Victor Valley Union High School District that expresses outrage at the proposed event. The letter reads, "this is the promotion of an activity that is specifically precluded under state law and therefore amounts to the encouragement of illegal activity by students that are under your charge, and sponsored and promoted by your school. The fact that this activity is planned to occur at a school constructed with taxpayer money is particularly offensive.
"This is tantamount to encouraging students to "practice" using drugs, similar to handing out 'fake' ID's to students and demonstrating how to illegally purchase alcohol. This is unconscionable!"
Please join these lawmakers and express your consternation to the Superintendent of Victor Valley Union High School District and the Principal of Silverado High School:
Superintendent Greg Lundeen Victor Valley Union High School District E-mail: greg_lundeen@vvuhsd.k12.ca.us Phone: 760-955-3200 X202 Fax: 760-245-4634
Principal Levine Silverado High School Phone: 760-955-3353 Fax: 760-955-3471
Couldn't agree more!
