My heart goes out to this young man; he is obviously proud of his heritage, and from the picture, his kit was quite "squared away" and the kilt was not just an "attention getter".

As an educator myself, I am ashamed for the school officials who have shown such bad judgement and lack of common sense in this case.

Hopefully the Scottish organizations in MN are rallying in this young man's defence, and I personally would be willing to write the school district in question and express my disagreement with their actions. I will also pass this along to our St. Andrew's Society's listserv.

Cheers,

Todd
