MADISON (WKOW) -- Madison's East High School is postponing its planned drag show after school officials say they received messages that "raised a number of safety concerns."

East High School principal Mikki Smith announced the postponement in a release Monday night:
"Without question, the safety of all our students, staff and families must be our top priority. Therefore, due to these recent safety concerns, we have decided to postpone this event to a later date.
