FORT SCOTT, KANSAS — Drake LaRoche was told by his middle school principal today that he will be expelled from school if he continues to bring his father, former major league first baseman Adam LaRoche, to the 8th grade with him everyday.

Adam LaRoche has been attending school with his son since he retired from the White Sox last week, causing a rift among Drake’s classmates.

“It was cool at first, but who brings their dad to school every day?” said one classmate who asked to remain anonymous. “Even if he played in the majors or is famous or whatever, it’s weird to have a grown man sitting at your lunch table.”

“I don’t even like baseball. He needs to leave,” said another. “Who is he?”

“Drake’s dad gave me a compound bow,” said Drake’s friend Ryan. “It’s pretty awesome. We shot a deer at recess. I hope he keeps coming to school.”

Mary Van Dibble, the principal at Dwight Eisenhower Middle, said she only spoke to Drake LaRoche after she received some complaints from students and teachers.

“Drake is a good student and his father is very supportive,” she said. “But there is a time and place for things. We’re trying to teach children. What if everyone brought their dad to school every day?”

If Drake is suspended or expelled, Mrs. Roarke’s 8th grade homeroom will be without their designated white board eraser.

“We’ll replace him if we have to,” said Mrs. Roarke. “But he was pretty good at erasing it at the end of every day and we’d miss him.”
