Agree with frazzled-
A 3 day suspension is ridiculous. A slap on the wrist for a violent assault. No wait-- “alleged” bullying. Where I live, bringing a plastic knife to cut a birthday cake, or havaing a wallet with a small chain and clasp to attach to a belt loop can get you a 3 day suspension. This is an insult to the kid and his family. So what that it wasn’t officially on school property.As said above, it was at the school busstop. This was, IMO, as school-related activity, just as if it had happened at a hotel where kids were staying for a school sponsored extra curricular activity.
