#2 UPDATE:After Protests, Student's Suspension Cut Kansas City Star
School officials have reduced the suspension of a student who wouldn't give up his cell phone while talking to his mother, who is on duty in Iraq. The reduction came after school officials in this military city received hundreds of angry phone calls and e-mails about the suspension. -Snip-
On Friday, after officials met with Francois, his guardian and a representative of Bates' unit, the suspension was cut to three days, which will allow Francois to return Monday. Said Francois: âI'm not a golden child and I've been wrong, but I was right this time.â
