An Honors Student High School Girl Was Suspended, Threatened With A Gun And Arrest For Wearing A Shirt Showing Off Her Whorish Shoulders
WCNC – A senior at Hickory Ridge High School worries her college future is in jeopardy, and it’s all stemming from a shirt she wore. Summer wore a green shirt that rests just off the tops of her shoulders and exposes her collarbone.
She says, while she was eating lunch, the principal approached her in the cafeteria, asking if she had a jacket. Summer did not have a jacket, but a friend offered to loan her one.
“I pulled it up, put the jacket over it, zipped up the jacket,” Summer says.
She says the principal told her she would have to go to the control room to change her clothes. Summer says, when the principal told her to go to the control room, she remained seated.
“They can’t take me anywhere unless my mother is called,” she says. “So I said ‘I apologize, I can’t go anywhere with you unless my mom is called.”

Summer says neither she nor the principal was able to reach her mother. The period ended and Summer accompanied dozens of her friends to the auditorium. Shortly after, she says the principal entered the room and ordered everyone to leave except for Summer.
“[The SRO] was within five feet of me, he had his hand on his gun. [The principal] said ‘I’m gonna give you an ultimatum. We have tried to call your mother. You either come with me to the control room to change your shirt or we will arrest you.”
And it doesn’t get better from there: The girl Summer got handed a 10-day suspension, was barred from all senior activities, and the principal is still considering expelling her:
“It’s just sad because I worked so hard for four years to walk across that stage,” she says. “We have drug dealers walking across that stage, we have sex offenders walking across that stage and then the 4.4 student who showed her shoulders can’t.”
The senior is an honor roll student with a 4.4 GPA. She has a full scholarship to a major university. The official cause for suspension according to the letter sent home was “insubordination”.
She claims she’s had issues with the principal over the last four years (also worth noting that the principal is female because no way in a BILLION FUCKING YEARS could a male principal get away with this for even a second) so that may add some necessarily color to the situation. And it goes without saying that her shirt being the dealbreaker for the relationship is an absurdity. Out of all the things a girl in 2017 can do, wearing a shirt that shows her neck and shoulders a little is where you want to draw the line? “Insubordination” or not it’s an absurd choice.
But even if this girl is a regular trouble causer who shits all over everything that the principal believes in, calls her epithets or kicks her in the labia every single day, the bottom line to me is the 4.4 GPA and scholarships. If you’re going to a public school, overcome the inherent issues that litter those systems, and not only graduate with a GPA above an A+ but also a full ride to a legitimate school, then they can’t punish you. The fact that anyone in America graduates from public schools with a 4.4 GPA and competes against the way superior and better supporter private and charter school systems to get a scholarship from a big college means they are a public school success story. No principal’s clit measuring contest should change that.
