From the news report - The two girls were reportedly teammates on the school's basketball team, but when the coach learned that they were dating, Hunt was kicked off the team, according to Smith. She was then kicked out of school altogether.
"After two separate judges ruled that Kaitlyn could finish her senior year with her peers, her girlfriend's parents appealed to the Indian River County School Board, who expelled Kaitlyn [and] sent her to the alternative school,"
Im struggling to understand the schools attitude.... She was obviously seeing her gf for the 3 years she was at school, im assuming their friends knew of the relationship, so presumably at least some of the teaching staff did as well, yet nothing appears to have been done. After she turned 18, then the whole world appears to have exploded. Would they have expelled her if it had been a "normal" hetrosexual relationship, regardless of which way the 18/15 gender gap was? In a culture where litegation comes as easily as breathing, it seems to me they are leaving themselves open to a lawsuit.
