Paulding student says school lifted her suspension over photo of crowded hallway

https://www.ajc.com/education/paulding-family-pushes-back-on-school-suspension-over-crowded-hall-photo/2XTUNBDA2NDF7I2RHFLXR2MR4M/

The Paulding County School District’s decision to suspend students who revealed packed hallways at their high school earlier this week was challenged by at least one of the families, and they said they won.

Sophomore Hannah Watters, 15, was suspended after she posted a picture online that she took from her cellphone. It depicted a hallway at North Paulding High School that looked as crowded as any before the coronavirus pandemic, with few students wearing face coverings to reduce the spread of the coronavirus.

Even when good students take a picture of someone who assaulted them (usually females, but not always) & the victim takes device only to administration! Ridiculous!🤬

So I am very happpy to hear this young lady's suspension has been reversed!

I hope her family sues & owns that shithole school!

... should not apply and neither should face masks.

If you take a photo of crowded school halls you will be punished and suspended from school.

Please note:
During the Covid pandemic your free speech rights have been suspended too. Do not question or mock King trDumpie.

School sports, school dances, and school proms have all been suspended for safety. Please enjoy your daily classes and daily cafeteria breaks.

If you feel that you have the Covid virus please make an appointment to see the school nurse. It may take 10 to 14 days before she can see you,.. with this Covid thing she is quite busy. Please maintain your full class schedule until the nurse can see you, or you will be arrested for truancy.
