Department of Education officials are investigating after students at a Bronx school claimed they were forced to clean toilets as a punishment.Some students at In-Tech Academy in Kingsbridge say they were assigned janitorial duties as part of their detention as recently as last week.
"After school the principal came in with the inspector lady and she was like 'Oh, everyone has to pitch in and clean the toilets and stuff.' So we was cleaning them and we had to clean around them and nasty, it was just mad nasty," said one student.
"Like that's not cool, like making kids clean toilets like that's not how that should go," said another student.
The DOE says if the allegations are true, appropriate action will be taken.
Please tell me what it wrong with this? (other than "we was cleaning them")
Seems to me that this is a punishment that actually would work...the students are disgusted. And, what appropriate action will be taken??? I mean, really? I can see it already...principal suspended pending investigation. blah blah blah. And don't give me that crap (no pun intended) about kids getting sick. People have been cleaning toilets for about 100 years and if you do it properly you won't get sick.
