Good ole Christian charity & tolerance....
Kaylee Timonet didn’t suspect anything last week when the principal summoned her. The 17-year-old senior is the student body president of her public high school in Walker, La., and met with him frequently.
But when Kaylee got to his office, Principal Jason St. Pierre confronted her with a video of her dancing at a homecoming after-party off campus three days earlier, chastising her for not living up to “God’s ideals,” Kaylee said in a 3½-minute TikTok video that’s been viewed 1 million times. He stripped her of her presidency and revoked his endorsement for a college scholarship she was applying for, she said in the video.

Under pressure, St. Pierre on Monday issued a statement on the Walker High School website, saying he’d apologized to Kaylee and her mother, reinstated Kaylee as student government president and agreed to once again endorse her for college scholarships. He has since told district officials that he plans to take a leave of absence for the rest of the school year, Livingston Parish Public Schools Superintendent Joe Murphy said in a statement sent Wednesday to The Washington Post through a district spokeswoman.
