High School Students Subjected to Drag Queen Dance by Male Teacher

A high school teacher stirred up angry parents after performing a drag queen act for his students during class hours.

QUICK FACTS:
  • French teacher Matthew Kashdan was seen performing a drag queen dance in a blue sequined dress, red boots, and a blonde wig, according to Empower Wisconsin.
  • The educator lip-syncs to the song “Rain on Me” by Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande as he allows his backside to hang out of his costume.
  • A student in the background of the video can be heard expressing his disgust as Kashdan performs in front of a group of young people at Middleton High School in Middleton, Wisc.
OUTRAGED PARENT OVER TEACHER PERFORMING DRAG IN FRONT OF HIGH SCHOOLERS:

“I don’t care what MATTHEW KASHDAN does outside of school. I DO CARE what he does at Middleton High School.”

BACKGROUND:
  • Concerned parents unleashed their anger over the ordeal, saying they trust teachers to protect their children while under their care, not subject them to controversial dances.
  • “I send my children to school and entrust them to teachers that I have to believe are professionals who won’t destroy their innocence for their own pleasure,” one parent wrote in an email. “If MATTHEW KASHDAN makes a decision to perform his drag show at school, what else does he do in his classroom with a roomful of children?”
  • The district’s director of Information and Public Relations said the school “is reviewing protocols and processes going forward to make sure all perspectives are considered.”
