but the fact that they are punishing students for anything non-school related is downright draconian and offensive. They have no right to do that.
The article said that the students have to sign training rules before they can participate in extra-curriculars. This is a contract between the student and school. Just like a real contract, bad things will happen when you break it. This stuff has been around for awhile. Most schools have similar rules for if kids are seen drinking in public etc. Kids will just have to realize that doing something on the internet is no different than doing it on a street corner.
The Supreme Court ruled just last year that teens aren't mature enough to appreciate the consequences of their actions in murder cases. This is just more of the same "for the kiddies" garbage. I guess we get what we deserve when we let the government decide what is good for us.
