A New Hampshire high school labeled unvaccinated and vaccinated students with marker at its prom last weekend, a move the principal said let the students "enjoy a close to normal" experience but which has drawn criticism from a state lawmaker.
Republican State Rep. Melissa Litchfield said she posted about the markings to social media and has been contacted by more than a dozen parents.
"The post has taken on a life of its own, exponentially," Litchfield said during an interview Thursday. "Every time I look at it, it's been shared."
She said some parents and students are upset over the decision to label unvaccinated students as they walked into their senior prom at Exeter High School.
"Children that were not vaccinated were written on in black Sharpie on their hands and those that were vaccinated had some type of red marker put on them," Litchfield said.
