Latte on the First Day Triggers Backlash Over New School Cup Rule
An upstate New York high school senior was suspended for bringing a latte to class as Beaver River Central School District enforces a new rule aimed at preventing beverages in class; the student says the policy was enacted without proper public input and unfairly targets everyday drinks, and she plans to pressure the district at an upcoming school-board meeting to revert to the old policy while administrators say the rule is meant to create a safer, more focused learning environment.
