...‘We Are Here For An Education And Not A Political Protest’

“We are here for an education and not a political protest.” That’s is the message from Needville ISD Superintendent Curtis Rhodes Tuesday in response to a call by political groups for students to walk out of class to protest gun issues in the wake of the Florida school shooting.

In a post on Facebook, Rhodes said, “A school is a place to learn and grow educationally, emotionally and morally. A disruption will not be tolerated.”

[snip]Addressing the planned possible protests directly Rhodes said, “There is a ‘movement’ attempting to stage walkouts/disruptions of the school through social media and/or other media outlets. Please be advised that the Needville ISD will not allow a student demonstration during school hours for any type of protest or awareness!!”

Rhodes said that — regardless of how many kids participate — nobody will escape discipline “no matter if it is one, 50, or 500 students involved.”

I hope the district keeps this decision. They will get emotionally hammered for it though. Called all manner of ugly names. Gird your loins!

He looks like a decent guy.

(Hoping that the FReepers who feel that any public schools are unacceptable will not stir up this thread.)

It’s about time an Adult took charge and told these little pukes the way life really works.

Bravo!

Good for this school. Teachers should have given tests today worth 90 percent of their six weeks grade. Anyone on the march will not get a make up test.

Suspending a student is different from expelling one.
