At Saticoy Elementary, where some parents object to a LGBTQ+ book reading, a Pride flag is burned. LAPD investigates.
An LGBTQ+ flag placed in a plant pot outside of a classroom at Saticoy Elementary School was lit on fire, the flag was destroyed, and it is being investigated as a possible hate crime, according to LAPD.
The blackened planter and burned flag were discovered by school personnel on Monday, May 22, at 6:30 a.m., Hamilton said. He did not know when the planter and flag were burned and there are no suspects, he said. The group, Saticoy Elementary Parents, says on its Instagram page that the school has a significant population of Armenian and Hispanic families who “share conservative values” and “don’t feel this material is appropriate to teach to the children.”
Ana said she wants to make clear that the parent group is not anti-LGBTQ+, but is made up of parents who feel that the book reading, that is in part about LGBTQ+ parents, is not an age appropriate subject for grade school students. He said volunteers from the center will walk alongside the LGBTQ parents en route to school on June 2 and LAPD will be present.
