Justin Denney, a Bonny Eagle graduating student was not given his diploma during their commencement exercises when he reportedly bowed and blew his mom a kiss onstage.

Denney’s mom, Mary Denney, does not believe that there was sufficient ground for the denial of her son’s diploma, even considering the fact that all Bonny Eagle graduating students were asked to sign a code of conduct prior to the graduation event.

“There was no misbehavior. Showboating is not misbehavior. A bow, a kiss to your mom is not misbehavior. There was no need of my son not getting his diploma.,” Mary was reported as saying.

    How can a kiss count as a breach of the code of conduct?

      Well, apparently, the event superintendent thought the act as just clowning around? You know how it is at graduations. :p

    Obviously the principal of that school is an emotionless being. I think all of this was blown out of proportion.

    Is it a wonder why more and more parents are homeschooling their children in this day and age. I see nothing wrong with homeschooling.
