Making History: Transgender Student Elected Prom Queen

Johnny Vera (right), known as "Crystal" by classmates, became the first transgender student in Fresno history to be elected prom queen at Roosevelt High School. Loved by his peers and active in the school and community, he is a member of the cheerleading squad and gets good grades. Vera's desire to be prom queen stemmed from his attempts to promote tolerance and acceptance for all students. He was inspired to run by Cinthia Covarrubias, a female student who made national news by being the first female candidate to run for prom king. I'm proud of Johnny's accomplishment, because that takes alot of courage. If only the rest of the world would open up thier eyes...
