'I decided right then that, no matter what, I wasn't caving': Student refuses to do mandatory senior project, school's administration makes it their mission to get student to comply

This student is single-handedly tanking their school's project scores, and in typical teenage fashion, they don't care about the project at all. 

By senior year of high school, a lot of students are fully checked out. At that age, you probably have a car, a job, and dreams of life after high school, like attending college or moving out of your parent's place. Senior year rolls around and students find it hard to take it seriously. High school is so close to no longer mattering to you that school administrators need to figure out how to make students behave. And of course, the arrow they love to pull from their quiver is, "We won't let you walk during graduation."

For many high school seniors, walking during graduation is a big deal. Our administration solemnly told my graduating class that the ceremony is not about you as a student, but about your parents, who guided you through your schooling for years, and now want to see you have your moment to shine. That's a great way of guilting teens into doing what you want! But if neither of those threats works, administrators will need to find a new tactic. They found that out the hard way with u/Brandilio, who shared the anecdote to r/MaliciousCompliance. 

Check out their entire story below. Then, read about these moviegoers who broke the rule of silence in movie theaters---but at least they made the entire theater crack up laughing with their jokes and witty comments.
