West Potomac High School’s “Beyond the Page Theatre Company” in Virginia is performing the risqué musical “Kinky Boots,” and in conjunction with that they are promoting a “Drag Brunch” on May 4, 2024. The Daily Signal reported on it.
Thank you to the Colonial Mt. Vernon Women’s Republican Club for taking action on this!
What can you do??
1) Email the Principal. Here’s the link to send an email to the principal of West Potomac HS. Ask that she cancel the Drag Queen Brunch because it is offensive to women, will propagandize and sexualize children, and is a completely inappropriate use of taxpayer money. Her school is among the poorest-performing in the county with plummeting SAT scores. She should be holding tutoring and SAT prep in the school theater, not drag shows.

2) Email key FCPS staff:
- Superintendent Dr. Michelle Reed: superintendent@fcps.edu
- Chief of Schools Dr. Geovanny Ponce: gjponce@fcps.edu
- Assistant Superintendent Region 3 Ray Lonnett: Rlonnett1@fcps.edu
3) Email the School Board. Here is an email address that will go to all 12 School Board members. fairfaxcountyschoolboard@fcps.edu They condone this and are ultimately responsible — the Chairman of the School Board is Karl Frisch, chose to be sworn in on a stack of pornographic books for children.
4) Contact the Fairfax Board of Supervisors. They fund the School Board with our taxes, so they need to hear from us! Here is a document with all of their names and emails. (There are 10 Supervisors; 9 D, 1R.) Please at least write to your own supervisor and to the Chair and Vice Chair.
5) Keep spreading the word. Let others know what our Fairfax County Public Schools are doing.
