Freshman Darah Katz stands on the Quad along with other Palo Alto High School students on April 12 for the Day of (No) Silence event. “So I know, obviously, we live in a pretty great community,” Katz said. “There's a lot of other places in the US where it’s a lot worse for LGBTQ people. I've heard a lot of people here at Paly that use ‘gay’ as an insult and other similar things, and it makes me really uncomfortable.”
