Public displays of affection (PDA): When does it go from cute to inappropriate?
“There is no place for PDA in school,” German teacher Shawn Rudy states.
“I feel teachers shouldn’t be all over students for PDA, but I also think students shouldn’t be making out in the halls,” Sophomore DaQuan Brown said.
“[PDA] makes me want to hit myself in the face,” Senior Brian Erb said.
According to the school handbook, “Students are prohibited from engaging in any public displays of affection while on school property. Any violation of this rule will result in disciplinary action.”
Although some students get away with doing it, teachers are still on the watch.
The consensus of the freshman class was that the middle school was stricter than high school regarding PDA. Teachers in the middle school give students warnings; after so many warnings, a detention is given to both students.
The hallways are packed enough with crowds of people as it is, and then people stop right in the middle of the hall just to say goodbye to their boyfriends or girlfriends, adding to the frenzy. School hallways do not seem big enough for people to even stand at their lockers and get books due to these PDA offenders.
