Deon J. Hampton is a national reporter for NBC News.
The principal of a high school in Albuquerque, New Mexico, has been replaced and multiple employees have been put on administrative leave as the district investigates a drag queen show that took place during prom. Earlier this week, the chief of Albuquerque Public Schools, Channell Segura, sent a letter to parents confirming the performance occurred during April 20's prom and said an investigation would determine how it happened and how it may have affected students.
On the school’s official Facebook page, several people expressed disappointment and frustration over the performance. “Every staff member who knew anything about that disgusting spectacle at prom should be fired,' wrote a poster named Kristin Arnold Waide. 'Immediately.” Another poster, identified as Paul Miller, wrote, 'How wicked and morally corrupt must people be to allow this? Whoever approved this should not be allowed anywhere near children.
