The Ankeny Community School District’s board members got an earful when Kimberly Reicks, who founded a group called Iowa Mama Bears, blasted the drag show that was held at Ankeny High School, the Washington Examiner reported Friday.
The school’s Gay Straight Alliance club sponsored the event as part of a meeting as the school year came to a close in May.
Video footage showed Reicks approach the podium and address the board:
“I’m standing here today 129 days after the GSA end of the year drag queen show was brought to your attention and 128 days after you sent an email explaining to parents that the school was made aware of the unauthorized performance that took place at the Ankeny High School and the whole thing was under investigation. How are we 129 days later and 30 days into the new school year and we still have not heard any kind of an apology from you? Nor have we heard a resolution.”
