This is about disrupting class, not the words she said.
Not true.
If that was the case then how is a student saying "I don't know" disrupting the class?
After all, a student is also banned from saying "I don't know".

The media outrage and political rhetoric over the "so called" racial incident in Ferguson is designed to instill a sense of fear and anger in the black community. This news story and corresponding rhetoric designed to do the same for white evangelical types.
They are both great examples of the major political parties trying to use incredibly one sided and dishonest media coverage to galvanize their base ahead of the mid term elections.
I suggest you let this slide. It's a bullshite news story designed to make you angry. Don't be one of the useful idiots.
I suggest you see a psychologist about your irrational and paranoid belief.

It's not original on the girl's part. Back in the 1980s a Christian girl in Houston got to speak as valedictorian. Her speech was about thanking
God. It was not approved by the adm. and she was forced to re-write.
She launched a scheme with the senior class. At the beginning of her speech she sneezed into the microphone. The entire class stood up, turned around to the seated faculty and families and shouted "GOD BLESS YOU
And those students, were Albert Einstein

And you know that.... How?
Because it reads like a list of things she anticipated they would say to disrupt the class. Has nothing to do with the actual meaning of the words.

I noticed that "I don't know" is one of the things that students are banned from saying.
What is acceptable for a student to say when they are asked a question about something and they don't know the correct answer?
Say what government spokespersons say on a daily basis:
"I'll check on that and get back to you."

Ridiculous if true.
But due to privacy laws, the school can't tell its side of the story unless the girl and her parents waive those rights. Maybe she legitimately got kicked out and made up a story for revenge.

Why is it on a list of banned phrases? If it is a list of all possible disruptions... They're going to need a much larger whiteboard.
Exactly.
First why is there even a list of banned phrases?
Second, if your class is being disruptive, I would think that you can handle that with out a white board. I mean, the teacher will be drained trying to tackle the issue one phrase at a time!

Confabulate like the left does when they don't have the answer.

She didn't even say "God bless you".

Can you tell me Saturdays winning lottery numbers too?

In my experience, these things happen as a result of an annoying but loud parent.

Maybe but since she didn't explicitly say "God bless you" she could just as well have meant "I bless you".

Getting bent out of shape over that and having "bless you" as a phrase banned from the class says a lot more about the teacher than the students.
Agree. Completely agree
