The ban even barred him from voting in person at his own polling place. In a stunning turn, he won a federal court consent order just six days later, allowing him to vote and demanding the ban be erased from records, along with compensatory and punitive damages against those he claims acted willfully and retaliatorily. The school board has until July 21 to respond, while the superintendent remains silent and a board vice president defends the ban as justified — spotlighting the growing tension between student activism and school authority.
