Parents and Students Protest After Kellogg High School Punishes and Excludes Senior from Graduation Ceremony for Saying, “Guys are Guys and Girls are

Over 100 parents and students gathered outside Kellogg High School in Shoshone County Idaho, protesting against the principal’s decision to punish a student for saying that “guys are guys and girls are girls. There is no in-between.”

The protest reflects a growing concern over the boundaries of free speech and silencing dissenting viewpoints within educational institutions.

The controversy began when High School senior Travis Lohr, 18, participated in a school activity in which seniors gave advice to students in lower classes, Idaho Tribune reported.

Lohr spoke from his heart, deviating from his approved speech, and said, “Guys are guys, and girls are girls. There is no in-between.”

“We had a school assembly where every senior was lined up to give a piece of advice or something you wanted to say to the underclassmen. And I had wrote something before, and I decided to change my statement,” Lohr told Idaho Freedom Foundation President Wayne Hoffman during an interview.

In response to this statement, the school imposed disciplinary measures against the student, sparking outrage within the community.

Principal Dan Davidian told Lohr he would be barred from participating in the upcoming graduation ceremony.

If the student met the academic requirements needed to graduate then perhaps he simply take his diploma and not let this be an issue.
But if he wants to stir controversy, he can apply for CUNY!! Seems NYs Governor is opening up SUNY campuses to graduates sans meeting the basic requirements for enrollment.

And just blow off attending his graduation ceremony with his peers?
You would like that - let the over reaching authorities control his life and not make a fuss.
THAT is the whole problem!

@Budwick Not something I really want to see, but if he gets his diploma, that’s what counts. Being there are protests by students and parents the school principal will probably give in. But if he does not, I don’t believe the student can be denied his diploma. The move on the principal’s part may be looked at now as a blemish on his school as it has made national headlines and it’s possible the school board may not have wanted that and he’ll be let go.
But I think that getting his diploma is the priority.
