A Florida principal who resigned after parents at her school decried Michelangelo's David statue as pornography has traveled to Florence, Italy, following invitations from the museum director and mayor of Florence.

Hope Carrasquilla, the former principal of Florida's Tallahassee Classical school, touched down in Florence on Friday and visited the Galleria dell'Accademia with her family where the David statue resides.
