The common practice of a tax funded high school treating an adult 18 year old like a defiant kindergartner is a big part of the problem with modern education.
Let him walk. He more than earned it. The rule certainly is a get around the First Amendment. I am not sure of its legality. I am sure of it being wrongly applied.
He is probably that good bit more educated and thoughtful than most of his peers.
Sue the chit out of the school district, every school board member, administrator and teacher involved in making this decision. This adult (he’s 18) had his first amendment rights abused by the government and lazy ass government employee pieces of chit. This crap has to stop.
Old school.
““Guys are guys and girls are girls,” Lohr said. “There is no in-between.””
The horror! At least he didn’t say “water is wet”. What an outrage that would have caused.
The communists are so many places of authority and they will try to punish us in any way they can.
You need to preo, folks. If you fight this war against the communists in your town, they will try to get you fired, will use lawfare against you, will threaten you and physically hurt you, them claim victimhood when you fight back in any way.
There’s a bit more to this story.
It involves the local sheriff who is married to one of the teachers at the school.
That angle isn’t getting any press for some reason.
I wonder why.
The truth hurts the left.
This ping list is for the other articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. This can occasionally be a fairly high volume list. Articles pinged to the Another Reason to Homeschool List will be given the keyword of ARTH. (If I remember. If I forget, please feel free to add it yourself)
The main Homeschool Ping List handles the homeschool-specific articles. I hold both the Homeschool Ping List and the Another Reason to Homeschool Ping list. Please freepmail me to let me know if you would like to be added to or removed from either list, or both.
The kid earned the right to graduate and should not be denied it on someone's whim about what constitutes acceptable speech. This is a control mechanism, plain and simple.
He should show up in a dress and wig and claim discrimination if they do not allow him to participate.
Well we certainly can’t allow a student to be HONEST!! That’s not the current public school indoctrination plan. .../sarc
2 + 2 = 5
Truth to the demonic woke is like Holy Water and/or sunlight to a vampire in a horror movie....always has been, too.
school nazi: no freedom of speech for you
What do they teach in Biology classes?
Actually, the message was directed at sane people which is probably a minority of the faculty.
"I just think my message was taken the wrong way.”
No, I think it was taken exactly the right way but they can't have the truth blurted out by a student. Plus, he'd probably get wild applause when they handed him his diploma, and they didn't want that.
Show up anyways with a bull horn. ‘If they can punish you for saying obvious truths , what is the limit on their tyranny?
The kid intentionally put himself in the crosshairs. He should follow thru by showing up at the ceremony and making them do something about it.
18-year-old high school senior Travis Lohr was banned by Kellogg High School in Idaho from graduation for saying during an assembly “guys are guys and girls are girls. There is no in-between.”
This is how his community responded. 👇

This school is not cheap ($15,000 per year) but she's tired of the crap he's currently being taught and the lack of discipline.
