Pa. student suspended for wearing Santa suit
Posted: Dec. 24, 2009
WALLINGFORD, Pa. — A suburban Philadelphia teenager was suspended for a day for wearing a Santa Claus suit to school.
Michael Hance says he told his principal that he planned to wear the suit to Strath Haven High School in Wallingford and hand out candy canes. The 18-year-old senior says the principal told him that wasn’t a good idea because it would be a distraction. But he wore the suit anyway, with regular clothes underneath.
Hance got nabbed a few minutes after he walked into his first class on Tuesday. The school district says in a statement that Hance was suspended for the day for “defiance of authority.”
Hance says the school could have just given him a detention.
