Some Moline High School students planned to boycott the school's homecoming dance as part of a protest against the school's "no grinding" dance policy.

Over the years the word dance has changed. Students are now more familiar with the form of dancing called grinding.

"It's just really inappropriate. You don't want to do it around your parents," said Moline High School student, Savanna Spriet.

Grinding has caused a lot of schools across the country to put similar policies in place.

This year Moline High School parents got a letter from the school, stating the school is putting a ban on grinding at homecoming. The letter says that grinding at dances is "offensive and inappropriate."

This news did not go over well with some.

Instead of spending their normal homecoming at Wharton Field House, some students will head over to the Moline Club to have their own dance. The students are calling it an Anti-homecoming Dance.

"It's basically the same exact thing, only they get to dance the way they want to and not have to be watched," said Spriet.

Some students say they should have the freedom to dance however they'd like.

"I think it's kind of dumb, because it's a celebration for the teens and the high school," said student Katlyn Lemarie.

Superintendent Dr. David Moyer said he wants the dance to be a good experience for everyone, and an experience that's appropriate for all who choose to attend.
