High School Seniors Not Allowed To Walk At Graduation Because Of Senior Prank

Seniors at Sophie B. Wright Charter School in New Orleans will not walk across the stage at their graduation because of a water fight.

On Friday, a group of seniors did what most of us have done towards the end of the school year, a senior prank. According to the students, the principal knew that the students had been planning a water balloon fight and warned the students not to do it inside the building.

Well, the students listened and decided to do the water balloon fight during their lunch outside.

“We just wanted to have fun for once,” said Lyric Fernandez, a student stated to WDSU. “Now, we can’t even participate in senior activities or walk? What’s the point?”

As a result of the fight, the students received a five-day suspension, no prom, no senior activities, and no walking at graduation.

“Let them clean your building. Let them do community service. Children make mistakes,” said Rebecca Solomon, one of the mothers of the students that participated. “They were having fun.”

Sharon Clark, the principal of the school, released the following statement, “The investigations into the damage to people and property will continue and further criminal and civil actions will be determined. In the meantime, we want to remind our school community of the importance of adhering to our policies that emphasize safety to all people and property within our jurisdiction.”

Parents are expected to attend the next board meeting on Wednesday and graduation is scheduled to take place on May 13.
