Over his long tenure as the McCallum principal, Mike Garrison, shown here receiving the most recent edition of The Shield from first-year staff member Elisha Scott, has  consistently supported the publication's freedom of expression and freedom from prior review. Last year, he earned our praise by allowing the same freedom of expression to the varsity cheerleaders who chose to kneel during the national anthem at football games. The district likewise stated that the students were exercising their free speech.
