A homeschooled teen was denied entry into a school dance when other kids who were not students at the school were allowed in. This was after all the concerns of the school were adressed by the home schooled child and family. Mean while, the girl who originally invited the homeschooled teen, instead, took her cousin who was let inside – with no questions asked.

“My daughter and Steven (the homeschool student) have been friends since they were toddlers,” “her cousin was welcomed but (the school board) didn’t know whether my daughter’s cousin was male, female or a criminal who could have been a child molester. He didn’t ask.”

Rich Hilgert, the district’s director of student services, said homeschooled students can participate in high school sports and other extracurricular activities. But school dances are different.”The dances are a school function,” Hilgert said. “Principals get nervous when you have someone in the dance that you don’t know any background information on.”

Steven said he went to the school weeks before the dance to buy tickets. But, he said, he was turned away when assistant principal Jack Brady learned he was not enrolled at the school.He was told that he would be arrested for trespassing if he tried to come on campus again, the boy said.

Not to blow things out of proportion, but the weak excuses given for denying a homeschooled child access to a dance, despite his parents paying a school tax in the school district, wouldn’t sit too well with me. If the father of this child is paying taxes in this school district, he should be entitiled to demand a little more from this sorry excuse of a school board.
