*The following announcement is brought to you by ROY G BIV, Troy High’s Gay/Straight Alliance.
This week October 13-17 is GLSEN’s (pronounced “glisten”) 4th annual national Allies Week! GLSEN stands to Gay/Lesbian/Straight Educators network. This is a large group that represents teachers, administrators, school staff and students from all over the U.S.A. In helping our schools become places which are free of anti- gay discrimination, harassment and bullying. ROY G BIV is the group in our school that focuses on this important issue. We believe that schools that are free of these problems are better places to learn for all members of the school community.
Ally week is a chance for those of us who want to see an end to this type of violence and hurtful behavior to take a stand and support those students who are targeted in this way. We realize that it is not just gay students who are attacked, but anyone who doesn’t conform to someone else’s opinion of how a male or female is “supposed” to act or look.
If you are already acting as an ally, we in Roy G Biv would like to thank and appreciate you for the difference that you make! If you are not yet an ally, this might be a good week to start. The next meeting of ROY G BIV will be Tuesday October 21 in room 128 immediately after school. For more info about ROY G BIV or Ally week, you can contact Bruce Margolis n Student Assistance, Ashley Schluter, Katie Moore, Spinelli or Tiffany Peters.

“Just who was that celebrity in the THS football jersey on Friday?” Well, those in the know recognized Donnie Klang from MTV. This Brooklyn born singer, from Levittown, Long Island, is an up and coming R & B Hip Hop and Pop Singer. This child model was off doing television and film as an adolescent. He began to pursue his love of music at Island Trees High School in Levittown, Ny. Graduating from high school in 2003, he worked labor jobs and attended Hofstra University majoring in business and music. He decided to take a semester off to go on tour. He auditioned and was rejected as a contestant for American Idol. In 2007, Sean “Diddy” Combe returned Making the Band 4 to MTV. Klang came in first by fans. But, when the band members were called – Donnie Klang was not among them. Instead, Diddy gave Klang his own solo contract with the Bad Boy Label! Donnie’s debut album is Just a Rolling Stone and the first single released is “Take you There.” He was also seen with Janet Jackson on the Rock Witch Tour. Donny Klang’s message to THS – Stay in school, work hard, win those football games and vote! Our message is get to school and go to your classes every day because you never know what can happen at Troy High School!
