Dyer County High School senior Kendra Turner was suspended after what school leaders say was “breaking the rules.” School leaders claim that Turner shouted “bless you” across the room and the shouting was a distraction and was what lead to the suspension.

Kendra says, after she told a classmate “bless you” after sneezing, her teacher told her that sort of talk was for church and order her out of the classroom.

Reports say that there are a number of words or sayings that are prohibited for them to use in this teachers classroom.
