Since the group is not recognized by the school, it is impossible for parents to influence it, or ask for its closure. Although not official, the group gains credibility through each successive mailing, meeting, and forum. Soon, students confused about their sexual identity begin to come out publicly, becoming activists themselves. Gay pride symbols appear on the student TV station. Because the students are perceived as the initiators of these actions, there is no administrative censure.
Activist teachers become more public in their attempts to pass on the tenets of gay activism.
Students are by now required to read books that have explicit gay and lesbian stories, and they are humiliated in class if they express any reservations about homosexuality. A gay-activist teacher is made the head, actually gay pride signs. As of this writing, there still is no organized opposition to Project 10 among staff members, and no group has formed among parents to oppose this agenda. Gay is now officially okay, according to the administration. These same activists are now moving on to other area schools, working to initiate similar programs.
