Massachusetts School Principal Cancels ‘Honors Night’
David Fabrizio, the principal at Ipswich Middle School (Massachusetts) is being criticized for canceling 'Honors Night' at the school. He told MyFoxBoston.com that the evening could be "devastating to a child who has worked extremely hard in a difficult class but who, despite growth, has not been able to maintain a high grade-point average."
According to Fabrizio the decision was made in part because "academic success can be influenced by the amount of support a student receives at home and not all students receive the same level of emotional and academic support at home."
