A Freeper pat on the back to Superintendent Mike Harper for having the guts to tell the truth:
" . . . one of the greatest gifts we give to immigrants and their families is a free public education, and it shows extraordinarily poor judgment for those who have received that gift to walk out on it."

If you think missing the prom is bad, you should have seen what they did to the pro America students waving the US flag.....

Congratulations to Superintendant Harper. This will be a good lesson in taking responsibility for ones actions.

Yes, but I'm an idiot and don't know how to post it.
I wanted to e-mail Supt. Harper and tell him how much I appreciate his good sense, but the Ennis ISD website seems to be down. Wonder if it's been flooded with people who feel the same :)

I am shocked! Congrats to the Supt. and district for standing up. Now if they could only order water cannons for any protesters who show up at prom...
If anybody later posts an e-mail address, I'll also pass along my thanks.

Great quote from Superintendent Harper...
It should be quoted by ALL of the Superintendents and Principals in the nation.
Oh...and how classy of the students to protest AT the prom...so they can attempt to ruin the dance for the rest of the school.

Excellent!
If they didn't realize it already, these students have learned that actions have consequences.

They can all wear their fancy duds and go party in Mexico!
Since they won't be able to get back we won't have to finance their "education" any more.

"We shouldn't get suspendedand especially not from promjust because he thinks we shouldn't protest over something we believe is right," Aracely said.
You are learning a valuable lesson, not often taught in public school, called "Actions have consequences".
