And what did we learn today class? That’s right. Hacking the school computers has consequences associated with it.
Now slap yourself and head back into the detention hall. Dumbass.
From the Houston Chronicle:
George Bush High School’s valedictorian is among a group of Fort Bend Independent School District seniors who will not be allowed to take part in graduation ceremonies because of an investigation into tampering with the district’s computer network.
Khurrum Khan, 18, is the only valedictorian involved in the computer tampering incidents, which also occurred at Hightower and Elkins high schools, district spokeswoman Mary Ann Simpson said Tuesday.
The speech at the Bush graduation ceremonies will be given by the class salutatorian Saturday.
I recall this one. I wrote about this a while ago. But this part still amazes me,
The case is a potential a felony because investigators estimated the financial loss to the school district at a minimum of $190,000.
Sure block them from the grad ceremony, fair enough. But, 190K? Bite me.
“Now slap yourself and head back into the detention hall. Dumbass.”
I can’t help it, I LOL’ed IRL.

CG, I saw that earlier and showed it to a friend of mine who is a K-12 network administrator for a school district in West Virginia. He mentioned that on average, school security is awful and out of all the other districts in the state, his, in addition to one other, was the only one that passed their yearly audit.
