11-Year-Old Girl Suspended For 'Dangerous' Cartwheels At School

November 12, 2004

An 11-year-old girl in West Covina, Calif., was suspended from her school from doing "dangerous" cartwheels and hand stands during lunch time, according to a Local 6 News report.

Deirdre Faegre, who is a Student of the Month at San Jose-Edison Academy in West Covina was dismissed from the school this week after school authorities warned her for the last time to stop doing gymnastic stunts during lunchtime.

My wife works at a school where a 5th grader brought a gun to show off at school last month.

He got suspended for 2 weeks. That's it.

The gun supposedly wasn't loaded but he had loose ammo in his bag too.

Cartwheels, guns to school, in the same sentence as a suspension?

Where's the consistency and why isn't this little brat expelled from my wife's school? Do you think it's different if a 5th grader brings a gun?

Firstly, the nonprofit Burning Man organization, known affectionately to insiders as the Borg, posted it after 5 p.m. PT Friday. That, even in the COVID-19 era, is the traditional time to push out news when you don't want much media attention. 
      But secondly, you may have missed its cancellation because the Borg is being careful not to use the C-word. The announcement was neutrally titled "The Burning Man Multiverse in 2020." Even as it offers refunds to early ticket buyers, considers layoffs and other belt-tightening measures, and can't even commit to a physical event in 2021, the Borg is making lemonade by focusing on an online-only version of Black Rock City this coming August.    Read more...
