E. C. Glass High School is a public school in Lynchburg, Virginia. It was founded in 1871 as Lynchburg High School and was named for long-time Superintendent of Public Schools in Lynchburg, Edward Christian Glass. The school board recently made national headlines when they voted 7-2 to reject a $10,000 grant awarded by the It Gets Better project to students who had applied for the funding to create a safe space for all students. When explaining their reasoning, school board member Letitia Lowery incorrectly stated that "There are short videos on the lifestyle that the kids would have to watch," which is not a requirement of the grant. The students who applied for the grant were quoted by local news as saying the decision "broke our spirits," and that the board "made us feel like we weren’t even there."
