Students Punished for Riding Bikes to School in Michigan
Kenowa Hills parents have reacted strongly against a high school principal's decision to suspend 64 seniors for holding a "bike parade."
The mayor was handing out doughnuts. There was a police escort. But a group of 64 high school seniors who rode their bikes to school in Kenowa Hills, Michigan, Tuesday were sent home as punishment by an angry principal who denounced the ride as a dangerous prank. 24 Hour News 8 in Grand Rapids has been covering the story:
Kenowa Hills High School apparently has a tradition of senior pranks that has included vandalism in the past. This year, the students thought they would choose a wholesome alternative and organized the bike parade.
