Principal Thomas Amons is being accused of shutting down the whole program because he allegedly knew he could be charged with singling out the one student on the basis of presumed sexual orientation. An instruction. Amons is a deacon at a Baptist church.

Student Kwmane Gray, 22, (left) reportedly caught the eye of Amons. Instructor Cequada Clark is quoted as saying that “[h]e saw [Kwmane Gray] come into the class, and then he came to get me out of there” and told that Amons did not want him in the class. It appears that Amons was shocked at the appearance of a possible gay person in a cosmetology class. Clark says that she refused. After she went public, Clark says that she was fired.

The backlash has caused the district to announce a new cosmetology class.
