Punishment seems a little harsh considering the crime. Seems like this sort of thing happens when educators become highly degreed bureaucrats. My dad was a teacher for 30 some odd years on L.I., some of that spent as the Ass't Principal who among other things was the disciplinarian. He saw no use in suspending kids to stay home and do nothing. Under his regime, on a day like today, first you'd be out shoveling school walkways, cleaning off teacher's cars, and of course, cleaning the pool, followed by a stint cleaning the tiles around the pool with a toothbrush.
Hey, how about a thread on stupid school pranks people have pulled in their youth?
