Alrite nauts!

Another poll!

Still on the theme of "punishment at school," though.

How many of you (who feel like owning up to it, heh) were suspended while in high school? This could be "out of school" or "in-school" or both for you damn troublemakers. 🤔 😆

I'll go first.

I received 3 days of ISS (in=school suspension) for getting into a fistfight in jazz band with a good friend. He got 3, too. We kissed and made up, so don't worry. ❤️

Punishments:

Month-long Detention for speaking out at a public forum against the Administration.

Two In-school suspensions for organizing a lunch boycott and subsequently me walking into school on a frigid winter morning wearing pants under my skirt. Women wearing pants were not allowed in schools in the late 70's.

Three day out of school suspension for organizing a walkout over the firing of a lesbian teacher who supported our demand to we wear pants in school.

I was Magna Cum Laude. During graduation rehearsal of my speech I was interupted by the teachers lots of times trying to force me to edit my speech. I kept refusing. As the teachers confabbed I grabbed the tamborine from a fellow band member and began playing the Rolling Stones song "I Can't Get No Satisfaction".

I was at podium in St Patricks' Cathedral. By the time I began singing the lyrics all my classmates joined in. Teachers freaked out & I got dropped to Summa Cum Laude.
