US High School Student Loses Scholarship Over Social Media Twerking Video
A Louisiana high school student lost her student government position and scholarship opportunities after a twerking video was shared on social media.
It appears that the principal is backpedaling really hard. Even so, the kid still lost out on the scholarship because she missed the deadline to apply through the school.
The mother said in response to the principal's apology,
“It’s too little, too late. I even told him on the phone conversation when he made it to us at noon today asking us to come into the office and he mentioned reinstating the scholarship, I let him know that the scholarship deadline was done, and the damage that he’s done to her is done. I also told him I gave them the opportunity when I came in there at 7 o’ clock the next morning, to try and rectify the situation at that point. Now, with somebody holding his hand forcing him to do something, an apology being enforced it’s too late,” said Rachel Timonet
That principal needs his hard drive forensically checked by the police.
What a disgusting load of bullshit.
The school board is going to investigate. I wonder what will happen.
The article below has more details of the whole fiasco.
Fuck, dude. I've been twerking since 1975. Got all my scholarships. What the hell is going on with the world? Got me a nice ass, a hung cock, and a brain. Only thing I got ahead on in life was my fucking brain, so what the hell? Oh yeah, she's a girl. This story shows you what is wrong with just about everything why I will never return to the USA. The USA, and its bullshit, can kiss my ass. Fellow Americans, all the advice I have for your is this: Get out of there as fast as you can. I married myself a hung, twerking, Spanish man who can twerk all over me like nobody's business.
Fire that principal. He's a bad example for students.
We really need to move to a standard which doesn't judge people by their behaviour outside the professional setting. I suspect half the people lamenting this would be cheering it if she expressed opinions or behaviour they disagreed with. We need to have laws in place to protect people to do offensive things, or make offensive statements, which have nothing to do with their school or workplace.
@TheOneWithTheHair good lord what happened to just punishments. Even if this was something to punish (which it isn't) anything more than a detention is kinda extreme? Ya'll taking away scholarships? That's a future by some measures. You're saying it's okay to take away her ability to get a bright future because she was at a party on her own time?
So the girl in question wasn't twerking, it was person "friend" in front of her in the video. She was just dancing. I consider myself pretty logical in most things and this doesn't make sense.
The person in question did not commit any offense her self based on how the news article read. If she herself was doing something that did not promote a good image it would be understandable but this was not the case.
Wow, imagine being called a “hood ornament of the school.”
First was the teacher with the OF, now this?
Good
thot patrolled
