Parents are outraged at a Utah high school's decision to exclude 17 students from the yearbook.
Those very same students had been included in previous years. When Amber Bailey and her mother Leslee Bailey opened up the yearbook, they expected to see a photo of Amber, but there was none.
"Amber looked for her picture, and she didn't find it," Leslee told Fox News. "She was upset. She said, 'Find my picture, Mom.' She said, 'Why wasn't it in there?' "
Sometimes schools mean well, but can cross the lines of reason. When Leeza Pearson was reprimanded by her daughter's school for packing Oreos in her lunch, she was rightfully upset.
Amber attends a transitional learning program with 16 other students at Blue Peak High School building in Tooele County; none of these 17 students were allowed to appear in the yearbook.
"It sends the message that, 'We're not including you. You're not part of us. We don't accept you,’ " she continued. "It made me feel very angry."
When Leslee asked the school why, she felt the answers they gave her were unsatisfactory.
"The principal said they didn't have enough pages," she said. "They didn't give any notice. They didn't give reason. We bought the yearbook, we looked for her picture, and she wasn't in there."
