Well, then, if this is a public school, isn't it just as logical that schools should be able to exclude any homosexual student?

I don't see any indication that anyone is excluded from this school. Ridiculous straw man.

The worst thing is homophobic headteachers.

I was interrogated for hours by my headteacher (and my parents for that matter) after I hit on a guy when we were 15 and he attacked me later on. Of course he was let off the hook completely.

It's not a straw man. If this is a designated gay high school, what's wrong with a designated straight high school?

Sure...if you're in a 1980s Molly Ringwald movie! In the real world, 99% of people who don't care about learning and like to abuse "geeks" aren't going to be encouraged to do well based on anything the "geek" does.

lets here it for all geek high schools = especially in NYC!!

Go Stuy!!!! Stuy forever!!!!

This school is an extremely illconceived and idiotic idea.

Yeah, straight people will have inferior facility!

Perhaps if you had gone to Gay School, you'd have better grammar.

Come to think of it - how many gay NY highschoolers are there on poly?

I hate segregation. I can remember hearing about a time when the left fought against segregation but now the stupid people have hijacked the left and turned it into the pro-segregation camp.

Um, not all lefties -- only the maniacally misguided lefties are pro-segregation.

Then again so are the maniacally misguided righties.

Yes, I know. But before conservatives on Apolyton drag us moderate lefties into the same mud of extreme liberals, I wanted to say my two cents.

I guess I'll chime in: Yep, this is a BAD idea. If it were a private school that was privately funded, then that's their own business...but it's being funded by public funds. There is more than one kind of segregation. While we're at it, let's reseperate the darkies from the fine, upstanding white suburbanite children. Their educational needs are different as darkies are prone to violent behaviour, so they need constant police supervision. And we can't have any of those shifty Jewish children corrupting our good, God-fearing Christian children. Jews are thieving, greedy little b*stards afterall. No, having this kind of school is a step backwards in the climb towards Tolerant Society...

...just what Boddington's ordered.

The only acceptable exception are schools for the severly disabled...those who simply cannot function in a normal classroom environment. Their needs far exceed the ability of regular school classrooms to provide.

I can't beleive someone even suggested this idea. I wonder if the person who came up with this is gay, because you would think that if you want to be excepted by others you wouldn't seperate yourself from the public.
