Hudson board shortens expulsion for student who unknowingly brought shotgun onto campus

HUDSON — After meeting in a two-hour, closed-door session Thursday night, the Hudson ISD board of trustees modified the expulsion of a HHS junior who unknowingly brought an unloaded shotgun onto campus.

When the minor student missed his ride to school on Oct. 11, his mother instructed him to take his brother's truck. Because the truck did not have a parking tag, he parked it in a non-student parking area near the gym where a coach noticed it and called assistant principals P.T. Walters and John Courtney.

Courtney and Walters noticed an empty beer can and beer case in the truck bed and a silver box in the cab that resembled a handgun case. They called the student out of class and asked to search the truck. The student consented to the search and the shotgun — which belonged to the boy's brother and was used for hunting — was found. The silver box contained poker chips.

The gun was confiscated by the campus police officer, and the student was sent home. He was officially expelled on Oct. 16, for the entire school year. That decision was modified on Oct. 24 to the remainder of the calendar year, with the student allowed in the Alternative Education Program in January.

Attorney Al Charanza, representative for the family, appealed the expulsion before the board, arguing that the code of conduct definition of possession in the district's student handbook is inconsistent with that of the Texas Penal Code.

Supporters for the family were on hand to express their displeasure at the harshness of the original discipline.

Tim Smith of Hudson said, "You can't do a blanket policy. You have to look at individual cases. The kid made a concerted effort to get to school, and his life is going to be ruined?"

His wife Robin agreed the board should look at the history of the student, who has never had any discipline problems before.

"Zero tolerance shouldn't mean zero intelligence," she said.

The final ruling, which was made with the guidance of the district's attorney, was to allow the student to begin AEP on Nov. 27, three weeks earlier than the original expulsion allowed.

Charanza is pleased the student will be back in school earlier, allowing him to make up for the month that he has been expelled, he said.

Are we there yet????

Is the vote really final for Hudson?
After the Polls closed and the ballots counted,the final word was in.WET COUNTY!!! Or is it? Some citizens of Hudson think not,or should I say hope not. The rumours of a petition to keep sales of alcohol out of the City limits have been coming up at some gatherings. I can only speculate that it may cause some divisions of the tide in Hudson. Lets go out and see what the fuss is all about and see if we can get some input here at Hudson Weekly. Anyone out there taking sides yet? Speak your mind here. All comments welcome. No name calling please. Keep the gloves on . Keep it clean.

For Sherry

One must go and one be left the lonely road to tread,
There comes a day when all must face the path that lies ahead.
Knowing that the best is over with a loved one gone,
There seems no point in going on.
But time is kind, the passing years their balm of healing bring,
And like a bird at winter’s end their heart begins to sing.
We come at last to realize death breaks the earthly tie,
But love survives when grief has passed for love can never die.

OUR THOUGHTS AND PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND YOUR FAMILY IN THIS TIME OF SORROW.

A Distant View.
