Controversies
In 2010, Itawamba Agricultural High School found itself in the national media twice for LGBT-related issues. In one incident, a transgender student was suspended for wearing heels and makeup.[13][14] In another incident, the school's prom was cancelled after a lesbian student said that she wanted to bring her girlfriend and wear a tuxedo.[15][16][17][18]
In 2011, Itawamba Agricultural High School received reports that several female students had been subjected to unwanted sexual comments and touching by some of the school's coaches. A student posted an original lyric concerning the incidents. The school transferred the student to another school as discipline. The student then brought a lawsuit against the school district. The case went to the United States Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit which ruled against the student who then asked the Supreme Court to hear an appeal on First Amendment grounds.[19]
