Does this outfit seem appropriate for anybody here to see?\u201d she asked the school board. \u201cThis is what the man dressed like in front of our kids. So if this makes your head spin \u2014 if this pisses you off in any way, shape, or form \u2014 it should. Because I\u2019m embarrassed to stand here in the outfit that I am in today, but I have a point to prove \u2014 that this outfit should not be ever accepted in our schools anywhere.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reicks said during an interview with The Daily Wire that her outfit, which intentionally violated school dress code policies, was meant to provoke school board members toward action.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt has been over 131 days since I made our school board first aware of this event,\u201d she explained. \u201cWe are now 32 days into the new school year and we still have no answers on what the outcome of the investigation was. Nor do we have any new policies to ensure things like this do not happen again.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reicks, who said that Ankeny Community School District is \u201cnotorious\u201d for dismissing parental concerns, added that she and other parents desire assurances that their children are provided a \u201csafe and secure environment\u201d at school.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI will do whatever measures I have to to make sure events like this are addressed and resolved,\u201d she continued. \u201cEven if that means wearing the exact same outfit as the 21-year-old drag queen performer to prove my point.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Renewed controversy over the May event comes amid <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/huge-money-maker-video-reveals-vanderbilts-shocking-gender-care-threats-against-dissenting-doctors\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">scrutiny<\/a> of hospitals that provide \u201cgender transition\u201d services to children via hormone treatments and surgery.
