Locally we have had students suspended for:
Posting pictures on myspace making gang signs (not gang members just a very juvenile act)
Posting a revealing picture....
Posting a derogatory blog/rant about classmates, teaches, administrators etc,,,,,
I know that there are lots more for much less offensive reasons but those are the first ones to spring to mind.
I do not agree with children/teens doing this but I also dont agree with the school having such a far reach.
On a personal note My daughter was goofing off with friends while decorating posters and such before an activity. In an instant of total dingyness my daughter holds up a ziploc bag of sequence/beading and gives a thumbs up while pursing her lips.
This was reported to the school as her posting a pic of herself with a "controlled substance". My daughter was pulled from class by security and taken to a room where they started searching her school backpack and binder at which time she called me on her cell. By the time I was able to get to the school (which wasn't very long) My daughter was in tears being interrogated by "security" trying to get her to admit to drug use. We are still battling with the school over this and after a three day suspension are retaining a lawyer to protect her we are trying to get this off of her record. The police THANK GOD declined to pursue charges (For what I dont know)
May be George Orwell wasnt so far off.
Since this MySpace has been deleted and will stay deleted as long as Mom and Dad have anything to say about it |
