Texas Graduation Woes: Postponements and Disappointments.
TL;DR
Parents of eighth-grade students at Westview Middle School in the Riverview Gardens School District are angry after their children were turned away from their graduation ceremony. The school district said that students who did not meet the Positive Behavioral Interventional Support policy were not eligible to participate in the ceremony, and that students and parents were updated on their eligibility. However, parents argue that their children were robbed of a special moment and that the school's policy was unfair.
