Anyone round here good at writing or can help me write a letter?

@Vox in regards to what

I'm excellent at editing, but not necessarily writing florid prose

Im writing a letter to my high school administrators about an incident on wednesday involving students who wore MAGA shirts getting in trouble

That's a first amendment issue my man. Was the argument that the clothing was distracting from education? Do you have a copy of your schools policy regarding clothing?

No, and I do.

It was during a thing my school does for seniors called a lip dub

https://www.sbunified.org/districtwp/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Exh5132.pdf

the school acknowledges the tinker vs des moines case but says that the attire "hurt" the other students because they felt it is "anti-Immigration"

They didnt even say ILLEGAL immigration, just immigration

What kind of trouble

That I couldnt tell you

I dont know what happened to em but all i know is that they were cropped out of the video

and there was no high school news report of it

im certain that they were silenced about it though

Nope. Dude. If you want to get this fixed, 1. Contact the school board. As in go to a school board meeting and address this. They actually make shit go down. Let them know unless its resolved or addressed, you will contact your state representative (hopefully Republican) about it. Say you feel politically discriminated against. 2. If they don't, go to the media with it. If its credible, it will make the news.

Im in california

so my state rep is certainly democrat

There is nothing school administrators hate more than negative media. My dad was a school admin for over a decade. He was good at his job because he was firm but fair

how should i contact the school board?

Even better, have a friend film you addressing the school board. Get the video online if you still feel discriminated against

It should be an elected position. I'd Google or go to your schools website

Alright ill def check it out

it just sucks because the school is so inconsistent with who gets in trouble

just earlier this year kids wore FUCK THE NRA and FUCK TRUMP shirts and had a rally in the greek theatre, but the school didnt do anything about it

but the second we wear MAGA shirts they flip their shit because some students went to them and complained

Bring that up. Get a few friends of yours who noticed this to be witnesses as well so it doesn't look like you're alone in this. I'd actually start a petition and list your grievances about it.

Do you have evidence for any of the examples above? Facebook pics? School stories? Ect

good idea i will definitely do that!!

I do actually

some of my friends have pictures

For the Fuck Trump and NRA? Or about you guys getting edited out

Yeah I have pics of those

And your friends getting in rubble

Trouble

yeah

wait

no

i dont of that

because the damn school cropped it out

Ok. You will just need their statements
