A Washington state school district removed testosterone vials from a high school Pride display after administrators determined they had been added without authorization, including some vials that still contained a small amount of unknown liquid.
Bethel School District said administrators discovered testosterone vials « that still contained a small amount of unknown liquid » had been included in a Pride Month display at Graham-Kapowsin High School and removed them after concluding the items had not been approved by school leadership.
« We were made aware of a display at Graham-Kapowsin High School that included empty vials of testosterone as one of its visuals. The display also contained some vials that still contained a small amount of unknown liquid, » Douglas Boyles, director of communications at Bethel School District, told Fox News Digital in a statement.

« The inclusion of the vials was entirely unauthorized and did not receive approval from school leadership or administration, » Boyles said.
He continued, « Administrators have removed the vials and identified the individuals responsible for adding them without leadership approval. »
The district did not immediately address why the vials were included in the display or whether they were intended to represent gender-transition treatments.
On Friday, Washington podcaster Brandi Kruse posted a photo of the Pride Month display at Graham-Kapowsin High School that appeared to show a transgender flag, an LGBTQ paper fan, a flyer that said « June is pride month » as well as a book called, « Pink, Blue, and You, » along with a clear jar that appeared to be testosterone vials.
« OH. MY. LORD. We were just sent images of the Pride display at Washington’s Graham-Kapowsin High School, » Kruse said in the Friday X post. « It contains vials of testosterone injections. »
In a Friday reply to Kruse’s X post, Pierce County Sheriff Keith Swank wrote, « Pierce County Sheriff’s Office will be investigating this. »

Some users took to X to share their concern, with one writing, « This school is 5 miles from where we used to live in WA — we would have been at the GK ‘campus’ when my oldest started kindergarten – I saw the writing on the wall EIGHT YEARS AGO and took my child all the way to the other coast to get away from it. Absolutely not. »
Another person wrote, « I was just in there to voice my anger at the situation and they yelled at me for taking this picture of the principal’s office! »
