So your kids go to RS or you involved in the wrestling program. Got it.
Welcome to my ignore list.
Thats kind of strange, those things arent even supposed to work/shock if a normal heart beat is detected by the machine. Supposed to be protections in place so you cant shock someone that is not needing it.

This whole "off school property" is total BS. If you get an alcohol charge of any kind, "off school property" you get suspended from activities. At least in any schools I know. the length of suspension etc depends on the charge etc. Not to mention it was a Hazing situation for a school team/class, that the school has allowed to continue. He should not be allowed to compete...at all. He should be expelled from school and sent to an alternative school at best, it seems he has a serious behavior problem that should be handled at a school equipped for such issues.
Criminal acts of all kinds should result in the same, suspension of activities, and the worse they are the worse the suspension/expulsion.
Far as Im concerned I dont understand even if this was sent to Juvi court, he should be spending time in Juvi and no longer even be in RS anymore. Isnt that the reason we have places like the Juvenile Detention Center or the Woodward Academy?
Does the kid deserve a second chance....sure, unfortunately from what I have read he has had several second chances. And usually you need to pay for your previous mistakes before you are granted that second chance. The problem is he has never had to pay for anything, everyone just has let him get away with everything. Couple years of punishment might teach the kid a lesson.
I think that was just an editing error. I read a different article yesterday or the day before that said the defibrillator pads had been placed by the Athletic Training staff in case the student's condition changed and they needed to use them, but they never actually had to deliver any shocks. The defibrillator may have been on and reading his rhythm through the pads though.
Well quotes are messed up on my phone. But what I was said is the problem is that they treated it like a drinking violation. He sat out 2 duals and 1 varsity tournament, but he shouldn't have had the chance to wrestle at all.
Well it's been a long time since I was in school, but the top jocks always had a wider road to drive on than a regular student.
This is where the code of conduct comes into play. If I understand correctly, he “served” his code of conduct suspension, per the schools policy.
The problem itself is a code of conduct penalty can be sexual assault or it can be holding a buddies beer while he’s in the bathroom and the cop sees you. Most code of conducts written by schools are not written for specific crimes. It’s more “if you did something, anything, illegal, you will miss X% of your season.”
This is a great opportunity for districts around our state to reevaluate their current code of conduct.
I know I’ve read something in our kids’ school handbook that if it’s an elevated type thing like this it goes to a different level and is a more severe suspension. How it should be.
For those asking about state facilities such as Woodward Academy, our state is in a crisis. 3-4 years ago, it was fairly easy for schools to send a kid to Woodward. Woodward is now not only full, but the requirements for students to now qualify for Woodward are much, much more extensive than they were just a couple of years ago.
I thought it might be appropriate to post what a large group of R-S students have had to say about the situation. This comes from the Story City People forum on Facebook.
Is this our place to say it? No. It’s not our job. But someone has to say it.
In light of the recent (and not so recent) events, students want their voices to be heard on the situation.
This is anonymous because this is not the voice of a single person, but a voice representing a large group of students in our high school. Please understand that comments are now turned off because that seems to be the root of the secondary problems on this page.
Your own children - members of this community - are disappointed and unimpressed by the adults around us, specifically, people on this page. We are told to be mature, think before we speak, and hold our tongue when it isn’t our business - ironic if you ask us.
Here are our grievances:
1. You speak as if you know what is going on. One thing we must ALL admit is that very few of us truly know what is going on. Most of you base your opinions off posts from this exact page. You get your information from people who heard it from another. In a court of law, that is called hearsay and deemed unreliable. To quote our English teachers: “Is that a reliable source? Can this source be trusted? Can you cross reference this information?” Please stop pretending that you know EVERYTHING about this situation. You don’t.
2. More than not, if a post is removed, chances are that students are reporting it, not adults. As said before, half of what is posted is ungrounded and unreliable. It is viewed as a service that this misinformation is being removed because not all of you bother to think before you post.
3. The cheerleaders feel that the controversy of cheering for Kade was taken out of proportion. The school released a letter approved and signed by the cheerleaders; they were told not to sign it if it was untruthful. Some people are so quick to assume the worst, and it is disgusting. The school did not force them to dismiss this rumor. It was their own choice. It was false, they wished to correct it. Stop pretending like you know what is happening. In addition, they have said that they dislike this type of attention and wish the community would leave them out of this situation as a whole.
4. Lastly, we want to address the lack of maturity. Touched on before, the adults in this community have become well-practiced in speaking their minds without a second thought. Yes, it is your right and your freedom, BUT, there are 3.3k people who can view these posts. Ever heard of a digital footprint? It’s the reality that things can never be truly deleted; they will follow you forever. To quote many notorious people on this page: “I have screenshots.” Though we are only “kids,” we still read every single post. We see your names. We talk about you. The immature parents on this page are the laughing stock in the high school. We recognize your names and look forward to your next impulsive post. It’s entertaining watching you all bicker like 5th graders - we said it, you are acting like immature, irresponsible, and petty 5th graders.
If you have read this far, thank you. Thank you for hearing our voice. Sure we are “undeveloped” teenagers and “know nothing about the real world,” but we also recognize that intelligence and mindfulness (especially when it pertains to us) often occur BEFORE we are legally considered adults. A.K.A we have opinions on the matter too. If your impression after reading this is “stupid kids who know nothing,” then we encourage YOU, the adults, the parents, the decision-makers, to consider what kind of example you are setting, and maybe consider hearing the people (us, the students) who directly deal with this issue. Students have become stressed with this situation only since it had started hitting the headlines. We don’t want this attention, but apparently the parents think that the only way to make a change is to torture the students who had nothing to do with this situation. Please stop. You are punishing an entire community of people for the actions of one. How are we supposed to be formed into “model citizens” when our only models are impulsive, angry, and vengeful parents who think they are above the law and know more than everyone else?
Takeaways:
1. You don’t know everything.
2. Your own children are exhausted by your behavior.
3. Leave us out of this.
4. Consider the impression you leave with the things you say.
Sincerely,
Your Children

Toledo or Eldora would be more appropriate punishment for this, imo.
