Today’s Lincoln-Sudbury HS football game will see a marked difference from the past.
In order for students to be able to attend Friday’s game, the School Superintendent has deemed that students must have a parent in attendance. This is in response to last week’s game where a number of students were drunk, many were drinking, and some had to be taken away to the hospital or to be charged with minor offenses, all of which taxed police and medical resources.
This policy change is bound to have ramifications in the world of high school football. And while the policy is currently intended to be in effect for just Friday’s game, school officials will be watching closely.
Reactions to the consequences of last week’s game behavior were mixed, though many students indicated that it was necessary. And while many parents are certain to have mixed feelings, their support will be critical in ensuring that students behave responsibly at sporting events.
FOX25 reporter Erin Hawksworth spent the day interviewing Lincoln-Sudbury students about the impact of the new game policy.
