Then again, that school would not be likely to hire me. The people that should feel the most guilty are the parents, who sent him to that school in the first place.

Most likely, he didn't have any say in these rules when his parents signed him up. Anyway, is it really worth messing up this kid's life over a dance because "rules is rules"? It seems to me that the fallout from such would hurt the school more than it would help the boy. On the other hand, is it really such a tragedy if he fails on account of not being able to follow extreme and superfluous rules seemingly in place as a power trip? I, for one, would wear that as a badge of honor for the rest of my life. He’s a kid, a minor. Most likely, he didn’t have any say in these rules when his parents signed him up.
