Birth-Control Pill Lands Fairfax Student 2-Week Suspension, Possible Expulsion - washingtonpost.com
“When a Fairfax County mother got an urgent call from school last month reporting that her teenage daughter was caught popping a pill at lunchtime, she did not panic. “It was probably her birth-control pill,” she thought. She was right. Her heart dropped that afternoon in the assistant principal’s office at Oakton High School when she and her daughter heard the mandatory punishment: A two-week suspension and recommendation for expulsion.”
A big shout-out and thank you to FCPS, my home school district, for continuing to prosecute the long and difficult war against children, responsibility, and dignity. At least they didn’t strip-search her, I guess?
