Should I be suspended for recording a fight in school?
Today there was a fight in my History class. I recorded it on my iPhone. I showed it to a couple of people and then word spread that I had it on my phone and I was called down to the office so that they could look at it. They kept my phone for the rest of the day. I didn't send it to any of my friends nor did I have any involvement in the fight besides recording it.
My principal suspended me for 2 DAYS OUT OF SCHOOL. I think this is very unfair. The reasons she wrote were "Wireless communication device / Any act which disrupts the educational process"
I don't understand what I did that is so wrong here. I recorded a fight, I know that, so I'm willing to be punished for having my phone out in class but 2 days of an out of school suspension?! I think that is completely blown out of the water. The most I should get is a couple of days of in school suspension in my opinion.
My question is: Can i fight this? I don't want this on my permanent record because I want to get into a really good college. I'm a mostly straight A's student, this is my first time actually ever being in trouble in the office. I'm scared for my future.

First of all, what sort of punishment did the people in the fight receive? If by chance it is any less than what you got, fight with that in mind. And knowing that you are a good student and this is not the usual punishment for having an electronic device out, it would be smart if you at least fought the note on your permanent record.
