Student lobbies for 'right to spike' hair

DELAND, Fla., - A Florida high school student is petitioning for the right to wear his hair in a 16-inch-tall spiked mohawk style banned by his principal.

Asher Stonesifer, a student at DeLand High School, said he is collecting signatures on a petition calling on signers to "fight for your right to spike" to convince principal Mitch Moyer to change his position on the issue, The Daytona Beach (Fla.) News-Journal reported Friday.

Stonesifer, who said he has sported the style on and off since March 2011, said Moyer told him Monday he wouldn't be able to wear his mohawk in spikes at school anymore. He said he was sent home Tuesday after wearing his hair in spikes as a protest and has been wearing his hair down ever since.

Moyer said the Volusia student dress code makes the principal responsible "to see that the dress appearance of any student shall not be extreme, to the point of creating a disturbance or be hazardous to the student and/or others, or school property."

Stonesifer said he may take his case to the school board if Moyer doesn't change the policy.

YES! You have the right to look like a jag-off! But you DON’T have the right to make us see it all friggin’ day!
So make yourself look like a horse’s ass and STAY HOME!

The principal, Mitch Moyer, was my next door neighbor growing up just outside of DeLand back in the 60’s. Heh. And I used to get crap from the assistant principal back then because my hair was over my collar.

Some people crave attention so badly it is pathetic.

This kid is merely seeking attention in a stupid way.

He is probably non-athletic, a dork, bad grades, and no girlfriend.

I could be wrong but I wouldn’t bet on it.If he does have a girlfriend she is more than likely as pathetic as he is.

Maybe his BOYFRIEND put him up to it!! ;-)
