Florida students to walk out in support of staff who flouted DeSantis trans ban

Principal and others at Monarch high school were reassigned over ‘allegations of improper student participation in sports’

Students at a south Florida high school were planning to walk out of lessons on Tuesday in support of a principal and senior staff who were reassigned for reportedly violating Ron DeSantis’s law on transgender athletes.

James Cecil, the principal of Monarch high school in Coconut Creek; his assistant Kenneth May; and the school’s athletics director, a volleyball coach, and an information management technician were removed from campus Monday by the Broward school district, citing “allegations of improper student participation in sports”.
