Off-Topic: Kid finds knife in used backpack -- is suspended for a year for turning it in
http://wwmt.com/news/local/branch-co-mother-says-son-was-suspended-from-school-after-reporting-knife Davies says, per school rules, the incident meant an automatic one year suspension--a punishment that was later knocked down to 30 school days. The issue wasn't just contained to he classroom; it also spilled over on to the football field. Davies tells us the school tried to keep her son from playing football. "The school told me he could not go on their property, he could not play; he can't ride the bus with his team because it's a Coldwater bus," she said. - - - He finds a knife in a used backpack. He turns it in. The school suspends him for a year. These moron school administrators shouldn't be let anywhere near children or any issues that involve children. Oh by the way, in case you ever need it, the school district headquarters phone number is: 517-279-5910. --Lauren-- Care About Science and Tech?
