Kilt Wearing Teen Sent Home From School For Cross-Dressing
TIME to hear from Weber School District spokesman Nate Taggart, who says Craig Jessop has been asked to extend an apology to 14-year-old student Gavin McFarland of Hooper after the school official’s comments Wednesday, specifically that the laddie’s (one ‘d’) kilt constituted cross dressing.
Gavin says he wore the kilt twice in the past two weeks to Rocky Mountain Junior High as a prop for an art project. Jessop told the boy that the outfit could be misconstrued as cross-dressing.
Taggart says the district recognizes the kilt as an expression of the boy’s Scottish heritage and that the kilt was not inappropriate.
And if it looks like a plaid skirt, then it is just a gay and happy coincidence…
