From the article PH posted:
"The breaking point followed a rally for the Blackhawks Stanley Cup championship. Clark says his son and other students drank beer there, violating the school’s code of conduct. As a result, Clark’s son was denied a chance to perform at a lip-synch contest. His son protested the decision and a school administrator allegedly said, “If he wants to act like a criminal, he can get out.”
-So for whatever reason, the school held a rally for the Stanley Cup?
-At any rate Lil Dez and presumably others were caught drinking there.
-The school thought it was such a grave transgression they banned him from a lip synch contest. No details of any other punishment.
-Lil Dez questions the decision not to be able to exercise his god given right to lip synch in front of his peers.
-In response to Lil Dez's protest, a school administrator, presumably an adult, publicly rebukes him, and calls him a criminal, and tells him to get out.
In light of the apparent history, I would say that the school has some 'splainin to do. Kids are kids. They are going to F up, and they aren't going to act great 100% of the time. Adult are adults though, and especially adults that are paid to be high school administrators, should be mature enough to rise above nonsense like this. If you have to call the police because you are still butthurt a day after a parent disagreed with your punishment of a child, then you need to get a new job, and probably a new life.
The events described by Clark seem to suggest a chain of conduct by the school that is somewhat disturbing and I wouldnt be surprised if there is litigation involved.
