When you attent a school, you represent that school even when not in class. Same goes for your job, your community, country or whatever. Now, I don't think your kid should have been suspended, but I think I can see where the school was comming from. If this school is close enough to this hospital for kids to walk to it and do stuff, then the hospital will be compaining to the school if the kids are acting up. The hospital will see the school as being in charge of what these kids do, even though they can't control it. The school has to put a foot down to prevent any other kids from going over there and causing trouble. Hopefully it's just a short suspension and there'll be no negetive effect from it.

Best of luck to you and your kid. Hope it all works out for the best.
benagain Reviewed by benagain on . Canadian Elementary Schools Ok, so my son is 10 and in grade 6. He gets an agenda at the beginning of each year, and every year the rules are in the front pages. The highschool kids get the same agenda, with the same rules, so I expect them to be slightly dramatic for the smaller kids. However, this year I read about facial piecings and hairstyles. No facial piercings period, and no hairstyles or colours that may be misrepresentative of the school. I strongly disagree with this rule, but that's beside the point. Rating: 5
