Riverview Elementary School principal Derek Larsen said in an April 11 Parent Teacher Organization meeting that he hoped to remove “triggers” for children with non-traditional families. Larsen cited “varying family dynamics and the increasing complexity of the Riverview community and hopes of increasing inclusivity” in scrapping the events.
Even as the school is canceling the holidays, it’s moving forward with promoting a Pride event that features a drag show. Riverview Elementary’s newsletter of community events, which excludes the Mother’s Day and Father’s Day events previously scheduled for May 11 and June 8, promotes a June 3 local Pride parade. The Pride event flier, decorated with the trans and gay pride flags, advertises a “kids play area” and “drag show.”
