Girl Gets Suspended From School After Posting a Birthday Photo Online

Getting expelled from school is a serious situation, and it only happens under the most extreme circumstances, like a student breaking the rules one too many times. But Kayla Kenney was not a trouble maker by any means.

But one day, Whitefield Academy in Louisville, Kentucky, kicked her out of school for posting a photo on social media, and everything went spiraling after that.

She Was Just Another Teen

Kayla Kenney was just an average 15-year-old girl from Louisville, Kentucky, who didn’t have a care in the world. Why would she? She was perfectly happy hanging with her friends at Whitefield Academy, the private school she attended. But she had no idea that trouble would come looking for her.

Kenney had a close bond with her family, but like any typical teenager, she also had a ton of friends that filled her life with happiness. There was one thing that got her very excited, too, and that was her devotion to athleticism. But she wasn’t perfect, either.

Kenney Had Issues at School

Kenney had run into a couple of issues at Whitefield Academy, like the time that she cut lunch and the time she got caught with a vaping device in her possession. But her mother wasn’t in the dark about her daughter’s past behavior.

She was well aware of her wrongdoings at school, no matter how innocent they may have been.

She’s No Angel

“Kayla is no angel. But she was really trying to clean up her behavior. Her grades went up and she’s been doing so well,” Kenney’s mother, Kimberly Alford told Today Parents. But this wasn’t the main reason why the school took extreme actions against the teenager.
