My take is if they didn't use school resources it's none of the school's business.

Who keeps the NE Ohio ping list these days?

[JenB]

Not sure if it’s of interest to your list but I certainly think it’s - at least on the surface - an example of what’s wrong.

Of course if they made videos of themselves at the shooting range they’d have been expelled and charged with felonies so at least the district is keeping this in perspective.

“My take is if they didn’t use school resources it’s none of the school’s business.”

You’ve got to remember that the school system in this country is in the hands of rabid, humorless Marxists.

Mine eyes have seen the glory of the burning of the school
We have vanquished every teacher - we have broken every rule
We plan to kill the principal at quarter after two
The school is burning down!

Glory, glory, hallelujah
My teacher hit me with a ruler
Met her up in heaven, back in 1327
And she ain’t my teacher no more “NO MORE”!

Principal Gary Geis said the videos poked fun at teachers and classmates

So why is this news. Kids have been doing this sort of stuff for centuries and civilization has survived it.

Some people have too much time on their hands.

ANOTHER REASON TO HOMESCHOOL

This ping list is for the “other” articles of interest to homeschoolers about education and public school. If you want on/off this list, please freepmail me. The main Homeschool Ping List by DaveLoneRanger handles the homeschool-specific articles. This is becoming a fairly high volume list.

Unless the videos were threatening in some way, this indeed is none of the school’s business.

[SoftballMominVA]

If the videos used none of the schools resources, contained no pictures or video taken inside the school, used no pictures of students not directing involved with making the video, contained no comments that could be considered libelous or slanderous, then the school was wrong. If even one of these things occurred, the school was in the right.

Since the article is vague on all of these subjects, no one can really tell if the right thing was done or not

[N3WBI3]

Its a hard call while on paper there is no doubt that the kids were within their rights (assuming no school equipment) these were high school students. They are soon to enter a world where such behavior would get you fired (assuming they are in a right to work state and are not union) maybe they need a taste of real life.

That being said the first thing the school should have done is asked them to take it down and warned them a repeat could mean a suspension.

[RockinRight]

Oh, for the love of all that is holy. What have we been reduced to?

Someone made a video as a fun joke. They get suspended.

Meanwhile it’s OK for teens to have sex under the bleachers.

The students' identities weren't released.

So how do they know how they are?
