There is a local High School near me in Toronto where 11-19 (not sure) students were suspended for commenting on a group created at Facebook.com about their principal. As a result, the police were contacted and the students were suspended for internet bullying. Do you think schools have the right to suspend kids due to comments or posts made on the internet. The comments were not made on school computers and had no affiliation to the school (other than the principal being commented on). An article can be found here, with the official reported story.

What do you think?

Edit: Changed group to newspaper article.
