  SURVEY
Should the students be be barred from participating in the graduation ceremony?
The boys, students at Massillon's Washington High School, walked into the school cafeteria during their lunch period dressed like girls.

School Principal Mark Fortner told the boys they cannot walk at graduation, which is scheduled for this Sunday at 2 p.m., at the school.

The boys will still receive their diplomas, but not receive with the rest of their class.

The boys say the senior prank was meant to be a harmless joke.

But Fortner says students were told that disruptive behavior would jeopardize their participation in the commencement ceremony.

The boys offered to do community service as a punishment instead, but Fortner remains firm in his decision at this time, reported Lee.
