If the kids were unaware and are holding their own at the school, I am not sure if they should be punished for the sins of their parents.

And I want the emphasize holding their own wrt to grades, etc. Have the parents feel the consequences of the actions and open up room for more kids to have access to the school.

Again, I am not sure if this is the way to go.
