ORANGE COUNTY, Fla. — An Orange County, Florida, high school student said he wants to be homecoming queen, but school administrators initially wouldn’t allow it because of his gender.
That changed when WFTV’s Mike Manzoni began asking questions about the policy.
The school is now reversing its decision, saying the policy will allow Anthony Martinez to run for homecoming queen and the principal who told the boy he couldn’t run never consulted with the district’s central office.
