Yes, the d!ckcheeses they call administration and school board of the Red Lion Area School District, Red Lion, PA refuse to let this kid participate in graduation. The reason? He was 1.5 credits short of the minimum number of credits needed to graduate. Why did he come up short? Because he suffereds from, IIRC, from epilepsy, and missed over 50 days of classes. The class of 2015 raised a stink about it and took to social media about this. Would administration budge on the issue? HELL, NO!! !! !! !! !! !! !! !! !!

Of course, this is the same school district where a kid opened fire in the Junior High School Gym almost 11 years ago, killing several students and the principal.

I made the comment when the Junior High School incident happened that I was surprised that this didn't happen 25 years earlier, when I was in High School at Red Lion, since administration, most of the faculty, and 3/4 of the student body had an attitude problem, namely, if you didn't live in the Red Lion Borough limits, you ain't worth sh!t. Unfortunately, THAT attitude hasn't changed
