Diploma Denied To Student Who Bowed, Blew Kiss To Family
STANDISH, Maine — Justin Denney’s family watched on as he ascended the Cumberland County Civic Center stage during graduation Friday night to accept his diploma, but the superintendent told him to return to his seat.
The Bonny Eagle High School senior’s mother wants an apology, and her son wants his diploma, News 8’s Will Lewis exclusively reported Monday night.
Mary Denney said she can’t believe how her son’s taking a bow and blowing a kiss on stage was grounds for the superintendent to withhold his diploma.
“I’m like, ‘Did she not hand him his diploma?’ I’m like, ‘What’s going on?'” Mary Denney said.
She said she and Justin both signed a code of conduct regarding the graduation when she picked up graduation tickets on Friday, but she doesn’t think he violated it.

Blogger’s baby was a hoax
Woman captivates thousands in anti-abortion movement with false story of difficult pregnancy.
The unmarried mother’s story about giving birth to a child diagnosed as terminally ill in the womb hit a major nerve on the Internet.
Every night for the last two months, thousands of abortion opponents across the nation logged on to a blog run by the suburban Chicago woman who identified herself only as “B” or “April’s Mom.”
People said they prayed that God would save her pregnancy. They e-mailed her photos of their children dressed in pink, bought campaign T-shirts, shared tales of personal heartache and redemption, and sent letters and gifts to an Oak Lawn P.O. box in support.
As more and more people were drawn to her compelling tale, eager advertisers were lining up. And established parenting Web sites that oppose abortion were promoting her blog — which included biblical quotes, anti-abortion messages and a soundtrack of inspirational Christian pop songs.
