the kid has missed 13 days of school already because of this, and might be kicked out for the rest of the year which would include prom and graduation, so yeah, I'm just curious about what's really going on here
the article reflects only the point of view of the student and her attorney, in fact it's kind of the perfect pre-trial press release, the district can't comment on anything about the student or the situation and the other student isn't commenting publicly either.
so - it'll be interesting.
I find Ashley's statement that she didn't know the student she was talking about was black to be a bit much, and the picture she tweeted if directed at a black classmate is pretty bad. Expulsion bad?
I don't get what happened to make the 5 day suspension not enough, I'm curious to know.
the bit about parents needing to teach social media responsibility is pretty compelling, it's tough for us because we don't know enough about it and don't use it the way they do (for the most part.)
They'll probably do better with their own kids in that regard.
I just remind my sons that whatever they post publicly (and it's mostly all public) better be something they don't mind me, the police, their teachers and future bosses and mothers in law reading.
