| 15 weeks 1 day 22 min ago Westport students suspended for legal drinking
|
(John Moroney, NECN: Westport, Mass.) - 16-year-olds are not allowed to drink in the United States, but in some European countries, it is completely legal.
When a group of students from Westport High School in Massachusetts traveled overseas recently, they thought it would be okay to have a drink or two.
When they returned to school, they were suspended.
Parents and students are now outraged. They appeared before a school committee on Tuesday.
Students say they were never told before the trip that they could not drink.
Neither the school superintendent or principal appeared at any meetings.
NECN's Johh Moroney has more.
