High School Expels Marine For His Attire, Then Something Unexpected Happened!

In the small town of Crown Point, Jacob Dalton Stanley's high school graduation took an unexpected turn when the principal expelled him from the ceremony for his choice of attire. The young Marine felt robbed of an important moment of his life, but the principal downplayed the incident, thinking it would all be forgotten in a matter of days. However, something unexpected happened that changed the course of events. The unfolding story reveals a community's response to injustice, the power of social media, and the unexpected twists that can arise when principles clash.

The "Principal" of this high school is not only morally wrong, but also ethically wrong. This person should not just be fired, but never allowed to be in, on, or near any school for the rest of his life.

I can’t imagine what the idiotic principal was thinking. Marines are unique. Obviously, the principal knows nothing about what it takes to become a Marine. They are the tip of the spear and heroes we should shower with gratitude and celebrate their achievements. Thank you for your service, courage, and dedication. You are a true patriot.

I had a somewhat similar situation but not with a uniform. The year was 1976, and the Vietnam War was still fresh in the minds of everyone. I actually signed the papers to join the Marine Corps in 1975 but didn't go to boot camp until after graduation. For the Seniors, we had a book published telling a little about each one of us. Since I had already joined the military, I put Military as my occupational goals. Well, I guess the people who were putting the book together decided to list my goals as "undecided ". I'm sure Vietnam had a big part in that decision. In July of 1996, I retired with 20 years of service. I wonder how many of my fellow seniors accomplished their goals and what impact they had. I'm proud of my service and would do it all over again. Service in the military should be applauded and not degraded. I heard a saying, "It's not that I could, and you couldn't. It's that I did, and you didn't."

The school board should dismiss the principal with prejudice. Making him not able to be get a job in education ever again. The school board should be sued for a hate crime. The principal should also be sued for discrimination and a hate crime.

I attended HS in my uniform (in 1981) nothing was said. I didn't consider asking to wear it for graduation because I considered my cap and gown to be the uniform of the day. I definitely would have appreciated an acknowledgement of those of us who had contracts already and those about to sign up. That being said, I'm not sure why it was such a big deal to the principal.

It should start with a formal disciplinarian hearing. At the very least a formal apology needs to be made to both the United States Marine Corps and to this Marine Sincerely, Stuart Kissane Chief Master Sergeant USAF retired

Years ago the Supreme Court put a stop to many of the regulations public schools had on the way you dress or how you had your hair. That was when I was in junior high. Before that teachers would be telling you to get your hair cut.
