Teacher told 8-year-old student to unclog toilet with his bare hands

The parents of an 8-year-old student at a school in Washington state are unhappy after their son was ordered to unclog a toilet with his bare hands.

The incident happened on November 6 at Scootney Springs Elementary School in the small city of Othello.

The third-grader said he reported the blocked toilet and teacher Brent Taylor told him to clear it with his hands.

‘It’s nothing I haven’t done before,’ Taylor reportedly told the student.

Artie and Lisa Adams said they learned of the incident when they asked their son about his day at school.

‘He said everything was good, but my teacher made me put my hand inside the toilet. We were like, “What?’” Artie Adams told KEPR.
