Boy Suspended for Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue in School
A sixth-grader started serving a three-day suspension Tuesday because he refused a lesser punishment for bringing the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue to school, the schools superintendent said. Justin Reyes had the magazine in the gymnasium at Belpre Middle School before classes Feb. 18, and Principal Kathy Garrison cited him for violating schoolâs policy on nonverbal harassment hey, what did you just not say? and possession of lewd or suggestive material, Superintendent Tim Swarr said. Garrison ordered the 12-year-old boy to spend two days at an alternative school where students from several area districts are sent when they get into trouble. But Swarr said Justin and his mother, Nicole Reyes, refused to accept the alternative school punishment, so the penalty was increased to three days of out-of-school suspension. "Last time I checked, we were in charge of running If it doesnât fit, you must acquit! Swarr said he had never seen SIâs swimsuit edition before. nope, never seen it, I swear "I was shocked," shocked I tell ya! he said. "It doesnât belong in It belongs in my bathroom (wink, wink) Iâm glad to see our ed-u-ma-ca-shun officials doing some educatinâ for once. None of that readinâ and writinâ stuff here!
