Kindergartener
Suspended from School
October 1998 - Curtisville: How a plastic
hatchet from a child's Halloween costume can be considered a weapon is beyond any stretch
of our imagination. But it was...and that's why five-year-old Jordan Lock of suburban
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, was suspended for a day from kindergarten.
The boy went to Deer Lakes Elementary School in
Curtisville last Friday dressed as a firefighter. His mother, Annette, tells the
Pittsburgh Post Gazette she received a call from the school principal... saying there was
a serious problem with Jordan's costume and that he was being suspended for violating the
school district's weapons policy.
The suspension cost Mrs. Locke 22 dollars for a
babysitter to watch the boy on his day of suspension.
