Despite a mother’s plea, there will be no change in an Ottawa High School student’s punishment after a cafeteria scuffle.
Pam Koziel asked the Ottawa High School Board to take her son off school probation and erase an already served three-day suspension from his record. Koziel says security tapes clearly show her son was just sticking up for himself when the fight happened last month.
Ottawa High School Board President George Hupp says the board reviewed video of the incident and is affirming the administration’s decision to suspend Koziel’s son. Her son is on probation for six weeks preventing him from taking part in extra-curricular activities.
