To the principle of this school,

I've seen a lot of irrational decisions made my the people leading our public schools, but after reading the article about Alexa Gonzalez; I'm more outraged than I've ever been. The thought of taking that poor little girl and handcuffing her in front of her classmates is one of the most cowardly, pathetic acts I have ever seen by a principle. She's a child, and she's going to act like a child. But you decided to completely traumatize her in front of the people that matter most to her at that stage; her peers. If I was her parents, I would take it upon myself to ensure that you get what you deserve, either it be within the judicial system, or it be outside of it.

Common Sense 101 should be the immediate CE Program made mandatory for all leadership in this school and district. As Charlie Brown always said,
" Good Grief ! ".

There should be an immediate accounting for this complete outrage and the principal should be fired with prejudice. A resignation allows a weak and insensitive administrator who is not thinking in the best interests of students to go elsewhere and perpetuate other acts of intolerance and ignorance. A dismissal will mark this person for what they are, ineffective and over-reactive and keep them from doing the same damage elsewhere.

I just want to voice my outrage on the case of the 12yr old girl who was aressted for writing on her desk. This is a request,I believe the Principle of this school should hand their resignation. What was this Principle thinking?
