The ACLU of Rhode Island is calling legal action from the Barrington School Committee against a student outrageous and shameful. The school committee is challenging in state Superior Court a decision by the state education board to vacate the suspension of a middle school student who reportedly made comments about a school shooting last year. Barrington police had concluded that the student posed no credible threat, and it was determined by a state council that the comments did not meet the general requirement for out-of-school suspensions.
