Its high school - dammit. Kids will play pranks. Did he deserve to be suspended? Yes - maybe 3 days max. Did he deserve to be handcuffed? NO!!!

I probably would not have even suspended him. Think about it. If this was his first offense then just make him stay after school and write “I will not interrupt a football game again” 500 times on the black board. No need to go overboard with suspending a kid and keeping him from the classroom.
When I said that, “The principal ultimately made a good decision.”, I was referring to her resignation.
Unless I’ve missed something here, the Pricipal isn’t the one who placed the child in handcuffs. Question: Would any other student have also thus been treated this way? If so, then, what’s the problem?
