A Wesson student is fighting back after being excluded from her high school yearbook for wearing men’s clothing in her class photo.
WLBT reports: Ceara Sturgis, a lesbian teen at Wesson Attendance Center’s high school, chose to have her senior class picture taken wearing a tuxedo. The school has informed her that the photo will not be included in the yearbook.
“It makes me feel like I’m not important enough,” Sturgis told WLBT reporter Katina Rankin. “It’s like I never even went there.”

I’m very happy she’s chosen to fight for what she deserves. She’s is a hero in my book.
I think they better go ahead and post her in the year book its not like she was wearing a speedo or a bikini.
The dress code is getting too strict in public schools.
