      Agreed, but it’s already been a year, she probably didn’t want this suit dragging out through her entire college career, which would be totally understandable. It just sucks that a $10k settlement coming out of the school’s coffers isn’t going to dissuade the principal and the “head of schools” from continuing to harass and threaten LGBTQ+ students in the future.

        The school will use it as an excuse to double down.

        “The gays COST us a FRUADULENT $10,000 settlement!1!1! THE LORD’s word is under ATTACK!1!1!”.

    I remember kids getting punished in school for coming out when I was a teenager. That was a very long time ago.

    Glad to see the school had to pay in this case.

    send copies of her social media posts to colleges and universities if she continued to “slander” the school or its members online.

    Wow.

      On April 23, 2025, Armstrong posted an image of her and her girlfriend on a beach and told her followers to comment on her post because “I have some ruthless Trump supporting ‘jesus’ mfs on there.”

      She didn’t even mention the school. They outed themselves as Trump loving Jesus mfs all on their own lol

    I wonder if the school administration was experiencing victim complex. Its hilarious they thought she was talking about the school when she never mentioned any group or organization in her post. they saw the “trump supporter mf” and assumed she meant the school specifically
