Students display 'anti-tolerance' flags after Ponaganset High's Pride Month celebration [View all]

GLOCESTER — Several students at Ponaganset High School brought "anti-tolerant" flags to school following a celebration of Pride Month.

In an emailed statement to The Journal, district leaders said there had been an "isolated incident" following the kickoff of Pride Month last week.

A day after the celebration, an administrator noticed some students had flags "symbolizing anti-tolerance culture, which is against core values of our district," read the statement, signed by Foster Supt. Michael Barnes, Glocester Supt. Renee Palazzo and Ponaganset High School Principal Amanda Grundel.

"The students were immediately called to meet with our administrators about this concerning behavior," the email said. "Moments before this was seen by an administrator, students snapped photos and shared on social media."
