    The surprising part here is that the school sided with the IT guy.

      That, plus a school computer lab running without something like Faronics Deep Freeze (even my shitty Mississippi public school in the 90s had that or something similar), and the lack of permissions control that apparently allows student users to delete and restore program files at will is giving the story some real “that happened…” energy.

        You give woefully underfunded school IT departments too much credit, especially in the “desktops are new tech” days.

        Honestly, sounds like your Mississippi school was ahead of the curve from a lockdown perspective.
