"Administrators all over the US are excising power that they do not have over students and other adults. Students are being taught to obey baseless authority and to never question anything. Is that the real message we want to be sending our children, who are the future of this country?Stoneburner’s wish is that this story will go viral so that people across America can be made aware of this the blatant abuse of power from a principal who took out her anger based on political views on a student whose views are counter to hers.

I spoke to people involved in this incident and it was handled appropriately by the principal. He was asked to go home after the incident, but seniors at Central High had already been dismissed and he really should not have been on campus at that time.
No punitive action was taken. He walked with his graduating class and received his diploma without contest.
It was a prank, and a harmless prank, but his timing was off and he should have not allowed the prank to become a distraction.
I have been a teacher in this district for many years and they are very deliberative about most things where the First Amendment rights of students are a consideration. There is no infringement of rights.
