Teen Kicked Out of Christian School for Performing in Venues that Serve Alcohol

Christian schools, known for their strict adherence to moral codes, often face conflicts with students whose lifestyles do not perfectly align with the school’s values. This tension recently led to the expulsion of Bailey Griggs, a promising young singer-songwriter, from Cramerton Christian Academy in North Carolina. Her story raises important questions about the balance between educational values and personal aspirations.

Bailey Griggs: The Background

Bailey Griggs, a 17-year-old high school student with a burgeoning music career, has been performing since she was 10 years old. Her talents have taken her to prestigious venues such as New York City’s Apollo Theater, and she has caught the attention of notable figures in the music industry, including Dolly Parton’s producer, Kent Wells. Given her demanding schedule, Bailey’s parents opted to homeschool her, enrolling her in Cramerton Christian Academy’s homeschool bridge program, which allowed her to participate in school sports and social activities.

The School’s Decision

In a decision that shocked Bailey and her family, Cramerton Christian Academy informed them that Bailey would not be allowed to return for her senior year. The reason? Bailey’s performances at bars and other venues that serve alcohol. The school cited its policies prohibiting students from “attending night clubs or bars” and “attending gatherings with alcohol or drugs present” as the basis for her expulsion.

In an email to Bailey’s mother, Jennifer Griggs, the school made it clear that these activities violated their student code of conduct. Despite the fact that Bailey was performing and not participating in the consumption of alcohol or drugs, the school stood firm on its decision.

A Family’s Dilemma

For the Griggs family, the expulsion came as a significant blow. Bailey’s music career has been a major part of her life, and her performances are not just a hobby but a professional pursuit. Her mother, Jennifer, expressed frustration with the school’s decision, pointing out that Bailey was not engaging in any inappropriate behavior but was simply doing her job.

“When you look at the handbook and the way it’s written, it says that she’s not to be gathering in places where there’s alcohol and drugs,” Jennifer said. “She’s not gathering, she’s doing her job.”

Bailey echoed her mother’s sentiments, questioning the consistency of the school’s enforcement of its rules. She highlighted that many students attend music concerts and restaurants where alcohol is present, yet they are not penalized.
