10-18-08_gay_high_school.jpgChicago Public School officials said yesterday they would delay voting on plans to build the city’s first high school aimed at gay youth until next month. The planned School for Social Justice Pride Campus was scheduled to be voted on Wednesday.

The Pride Campus plan has attracted national attention, and earlier this week, [Superintendent] Duncan met with local ministers who blasted the plan. Duncan denied the delay was the result of the meeting. [Trib]

High School Musical 3, however, is still scheduled to open in theaters next Friday.
