Another terrific Cathryn column.
I'm, shall we say, height challenged, and had trouble with the bullies for that. So, do shorties like me get our own high school? (I don't carry a grudge. When I go to class reunions most of the bullies are digging ditches.)
I heard this school justified on the basis that "gay youth" in NYC allegedly graduate at below 50% but this school graduates above 90%. Never mind whether the statistics are accurate. The point is the same thing could be said for most NYC students, who would love the chance to attend a college prep academy, but the anti-school-choice crowd won't let 'em. So why do the gays get special privileges? Never mind, I know . . .

Nicely done CC, thanks for the ping SS.

I fully do not understand a high school for gay kids.
How do they know they are gay? Hell, I was too busy chasing
girls to analyze my sexual orientation at that age.
And what about the other aspects of high school?
When we played the Bears, we had Bear-Bashing signs and
proclaimed many derogatory things about those rotten Bears..
Will this now become a hate crime if the gay teams are bashed?
