School investigating after boys forced to clean up restroom



Watch Rondah Kinchlow's Report

Officials in the Bird Island, Olivia, Lake
Lillian (BOLD) school district are investigating after a teacher forced boys in her kindergarten class to clean a restroom smeared with feces.

"The district is in the process of investigating what occurred, and we will deal with it," said BOLD Superintendent Mike Funk. "I can assure you that this will not happen again."

Funk said he has spoken with the parents of two of the ten boys involved in the clean-up. He said the teacher will write a letter to the other parents to inform them of what happened.

"This is my son's safety," said Tremell Pittman, the father of one boy. "To me it's a serious, serious health hazard." The boy's mother removed the child from the classroom the day after the incident.

Pittman said the bathroom in the kindergarten classroom had been smeared with feces several times over the past month. On March 14, 10 boys were told they had to clean it up.

Pittman said the teacher had the children wash their hands afterward but none of the kindergartners were given gloves or other protection. Pittman said his son didn't get sick, but will have him examined by a doctor.

The BOLD district is in west-central Minnesota.

The entire school is probably unionized so it's not like it would be cleaned any other way.

Not my precious...

So this wouldn't a hazard for someone else?
(mkay, gloves should have been issued).

My gut ( no pun intended) does tell me them walls will remain clean for some time to come.

I have a feeling that the boys in question were the ones that did the smearing.

Err---how do feces get smeared on walls in the first place?? It's hard to miss by that much....I guess some kids really don't think their **** smells after all....

I imagine that those were the kids who smeared it to begin with. If so then the parents "this is my kids health were' dealing with" is an idiot because the kids already smeared crap on the walls to begin with.

I doubt it. It's probably one kid, and the teacher made all of them clean it up. Personally I think it's exploiting the kids.

I think they make the kids clean their school in Japan. When I was in teacher training some profs would advocate that, because it gives the students a sense of responsibility for their own education. I don't think this is a case like that though.
