Social media is abuzz with frustration as Ugandans call out Kisasi College School for suspending a student who chose not to attend prom. The school has also imposed a fine of UGX 100,000 to cover the losses incurred in preparation for the prom party.
The suspension letter, which has circulated widely online, states that the student is suspended for one week and must report back with a biological parent. Additionally, the student is required to pay a fine of UGX 100,000 and clear all outstanding Term II school fees before returning.
The decision has sparked widespread outrage, with many criticizing the school’s actions as excessive and unjust. The incident has led to a heated debate on social media about the appropriateness of such disciplinary measures and the pressure placed on students to participate in extracurricular activities.
