From Times Wire Reports
Contraband candy has led to big trouble for an eighth-grade honors student.
Michael Sheridan was stripped of his title as class vice president, barred from attending an honors student dinner and suspended for a day after buying a bag of Skittles from a classmate.

Supt. Reginald Mayo said he would review the decision to suspend the boy.
