agree. But if he went to Saturday detention instead of just skipping it, is this punishment worth it for the district?
I see your point but if this kid worked two jobs and required different clothing, but got fired from the second for not wanting to wear the uniform I think this board would have a different opinion. He’s an upper class man about to be entering the “real” world.
Personal accountability and some forethought is all I’m saying.

I agree with personal accountability and forethought. But I also know that a 17-18 year old is generally forgetful about things they shouldn’t be. Yeah, he’s entering the real world now but that doesn’t diminish that he met the academic requirements for graduation and some adult in the district office is using some petty shite to keep him from walking. What does that teach him about the real world? Does that teach him that meeting the requirements means nothing and some dweeb pencil pusher with no real world experience can screw him over on some petty shite?
Why does LP need such authoritarian rules in their district when other, higher performing districts don’t? Why do they feel the need to take a stand over petty shite like this? There should be reasons for those rules and the repercussions and the primary focus should be safety and academic performance. This is a waste of the district’s time and energy and adds zero value to the education.

A lot of this shite could be averted if people had some personal responsibility and didn’t always want an exception to be made for them.
According to OP he did get permission beforehand which was granted then denied when he showed up to detention

asked permission from the administration to wear his work shirt (a long sleeve welding shirt) to detention. He was told he could but when he showed up to detention, the teacher on duty said he wasn't wearing a school uniform and would be counted absent.
