Parents have expressed outrage after a Houston area high school dedicated a page in its yearbook to some of the school’s LGBT students. “I’m honestly disgusted and embarrassed,” wrote one parent.

The yearbooks distributed at Atascocita High School earlier this month included a spread featuring four queer students. Their coming out stories and photos were shared against a rainbow-colored background.

Since then, some parents have taken to online forum Atascocita.com to spew hate at those students and threaten and insult Editor-in-Chief and recent graduate Kyle Armour.

One person commenting said the section was offensive because it felt like the students were “jamming their crap down our throats!”

That same commenter wrote this of a student whose yearbook quote was “Viva Mexico”: “Hope they self-deport, that crap does not belong in a USA yearbook.”

Added another: “We can’t pray in school but now we have a section strictly dedicated to the gay community explaining how, when and why the came ‘out.’ I’m honestly disgusted and embarrassed.”

“People were saying he was dumb, not smart, that I should not be proud of who he is,” Kimberly Hicks Armour, Kyle’s mother, told the Houston Chronicle.

“I’m very proud of who he is. He did take a stand and make something diverse for the community and to our school.”

Natalie Mendoza was one of the featured students and says the reactions from some parents have saddened her. But she does have her supporters. “My friends know my sexual orientation and love and respect me regardless,” she said.

But despite what these parents had to say, many of the school’s students have taken to Twitter to express their own outrage over the hateful reactions. They’ve also spoken of how proud they are of the school’s decision to include the spread.

I am proud of my school and the fact that we are accepting of everyone. I am proud of our diversity and inclusion. — alexia* (@alexiathomas_) May 23, 2017

As for comments from the school, yearbook advisor Kevin Tatum has been restricted from speaking to the press. But a spokesperson for Humble Independent School District has said the yearbook should have been more “thoroughly vetted prior to publication.”
