Schools have more authority to enforce rules for off-campus activities related to school events or that substantially disrupt the school environment.
The City of Houston appealed a judgment awarding damages to Gerald Kallina under the Texas Whistleblower Act. Kallina, a former division manager for the City, conducted an audit that found $400,000 worth of assets were missing from a City warehouse. He reported this to his supervisor, Lathenia Harris. Shortly after, Kallina was fired. The court found that Kallina initiated the grievance process as required and that reporting the missing assets to Harris was sufficient, as she was authorized to regulate and enforce the relevant policies. The court affirmed the judgment in favor of Kallina.

Sea turtles are marine reptiles that inhabit oceans around the world.

Conservation efforts aim to protect sea turtles and their habitats to ensure the survival of these ancient marine species.
1) A high school student was suspended for 10 days for creating a "Top 10" list ridiculing his school's athletic director that he wrote and emailed at home but was later brought to school by others.
2) The US District Court ruled the suspension violated the student's First Amendment rights, as the list did not disrupt school operations or interfere with anyone's rights.
3) The court also found the school's policy against abuse of teachers to be overly broad and vague.
The poem describes attending a beheading at a courtyard where the trees are painted with blood. It references eating and drinking as well as feeling like a butterfly and panic. The star of the show rushes in, feeling like a child but looking like a woman, and was predicted to attempt suicide, though the ending was not well-received. Picking skin and scales, the speaker sees their horror reflected in another's blank stare. It repeats the references to a game and eating/drinking.

This document summarizes key findings from the Teen Voice 2009 report about the strengths of 15-year-olds. It found that while 66% of teens can identify at least one spark or passion, fewer than half receive support for it beyond their family. It also introduced two new measures: the Teen Voice Index which found 18% of teens scored high in civic engagement; and the Relationships and Opportunities Index where only 12% scored high. The report concludes that teen strengths are best supported when they know their sparks and score high on both indexes, though currently only 7% of US teens meet all three.
