An ass-inine prank

So, is this a violation of the dress code, or the no-weapons policy?

HOUSTON -- A middle school student in northwest Harris County was punished Wednesday after he was caught trying to moon one of his friends in the school's parking lot. The indecent exposure got Easton Hohensee expelled from Strack Intermediate for one day.

He will also spend the end of the school year in in-school suspension and could spend the first 30 days of the next school year in an alternative school.

You can get "expelled" for just one day? I thought that would just be a "suspension." I think the punishment's a tad overbearing for such a juvenile prank.

A Fark commenter beat me to the title I wanted for this post: "We can all thank Bush for his 'No Child's Behind' education reform policy."
