Yearbook Settlement
Posted by Meredith on Sep 25, 2005 at 10:05AM in News Reports - permalink

It's really a shame it had to come to this, and it's surprising to hear a story like this in 2005 - but then again, this is Florida. At the end of the last school year, Jacksonville senior Kelli Davis posed for her yearbook portrait like all of her classmates. When presented with the drape (that dress-like thing girls are given for yearbook photos), she opted to wear the boys' tux instead. Apparently the photographer had no problem with this, and the picture made it to the yearbook...where the administration refused to allow it to be printed. Finally, six months later, a a deal has been reached with the school administration. The mediated settlement changes the way senior portraits are handled, and faculty and staff must be provided with training regarding sexual orientation.
