Okeechobee High's gay-straight alliance coming back

The ACLU plans to ask a judge to reinstate an order that Okeechobee High School allow a gay-straight alliance on campus because the club has regained members.

According to court documents filed Tuesday by the American Civil Liberties Union, two students want to revive the club, which was dismissed this month as a plaintiff in a lawsuit against the Okeechobee County School Board because the club apparently had no members and had not met since the fall.

The club's founder, Yasmin Gonzalez, has graduated; subsequent club presidents have left the school. However, Okeechobee High School junior Brittany Martin told a teacher last week she and another student want to revive the club and host a meeting next month.
