TOTALLY DISRUPTIVE
How did educrats take in loco parentis to mean that they got to make the decisions about kids’ appearance? Hair, tattoos, piercings. Aren’t these decisions that the parents should make?
A Henry County student’s battle with the school system over its body piercing policy will continue next week.
Daniel “Corey” Rager, 15, is expected to complete the rest of his three-day in-school suspension and could immediately begin another five-day stint if he continues to wear the piercings.
…His fight with the 32,000-student district has attracted national media attention and put the spotlight on the system’s zero-tolerance rules.
What is the rationale for this zero tolerance idiocy? This is a power play, pure and simple.

ITA! Good grief- piercings should be the focus of education. Wonder how many dollars are being wasted on this one? |

Since when does body piercing and hair length affect student learning and achievement? |
