REDDING, Calif. -- A high school principal in Northern California said he will eliminate the student newspaper after it published a front-page photo of a student burning an American flag.
Shasta High School Principal Milan Woollard said the latest issue of the student-run Volcano was embarrassing.
"The paper's done," Woollard told the Record Searchlight newspaper of Redding. "There is not going to be a school newspaper next year."
In addition to the photograph, the last edition of the newspaper included an editorial written by high school senior Connor Kennedy that defended flag burning as speech protected by the First Amendment.
