Key takeaway The display, an intersex-inclusive Progress Pride flag, was made by hundreds of students from the school.
A disturbing incident occurred at RH McGregor Elementary School in East Toronto, where a student-created Pride display was set on fire. The display, an intersex-inclusive Progress Pride flag, was made by hundreds of students from the school. The flag was created by tying individual pieces of fabric to the school's chain-link fence, with different grade levels contributing different colors.
The project was a collaborative effort, involving students from kindergarten to fifth grade. Further details about the incident and the community's response are available through an interview with a parent who helped organize the flag project.
