Summit High School Assistant Principal Inappropriate Comments

Since the Summit Patch removed my previous post on this matter I will repost per my 1st Amendment rights.

As the father of a Summit 2013 graduate I was very impressed by the proceedings. Well organized, even after the outdoor cancelation. Nice job to all those who made it happen.
My only disappointment was when my daughter came home and told me that Mr. Aikey, Assistant Principal, made a completely inappropriate comment with regards to politics. Aiken said.... "Keep you tassels on the right side of your cap. Those of you that are smart always move from the Right to the Left." Wow... What a disappointment! I would expect such a bush league comment from back bench educator, NOT from one of the leaders of the High School. Oh we'll, I guess we get to see his true colors. In the future, make your off handed remarks to the parents and then let's see the fall out. Aikey is a coward for saying this to a bunch of 17-18 year olds and not their parents.
