Denying HS Diploma Because of Cheers? Penalty too Harsh?

[ladygreek]

While the students can't control the families, I bet next year the families will control themselves. And first time HS graduate or not, save the over rowdiness for the family bbq. Plus they signed contracts and were warned of the consequences. So if this is your first graduate, why risk it?

Eight hours of service to the district isn't going to hurt anyone. But the "they can keep it" attitude and the families not owning up to their responsibility in all of this is what gets me. And in the time it will take for that mother try to fight in court the child could have received her diploma by working one day at the district.

And guess what, everything is not about racism.
