Hamilton-Wenham Regional High School Senior Dan Depaolis, dressed in medieval garb, rode a horse into the school's parking lot as part of spirit week.The horse was brought in on a trailer. The kid rode it around in the parking lot, then loaded it back on the trailer. That's a far cry from bringing a loaded weapon to class.
What he, and his parents, thought was a good-natured stunt, the school deemed dangerous. Depaolis was suspended from school for two days.
The father tells FOX25 the school compared the stunt to bringing a “loaded firearm” to school...
The school would not comment, saying that they do not talk about any aspect of student discipline.
The family says they plan to contest the suspension.
I weep for the demise of our friend Common Sense...

Many schools around here have a barn, with horses, right there on campus. The Future Farmers of America and 4-H need to infiltrate Boston area schools.
