David Matheson is the principal here. And he's the only high school principal in the state who still performs corporal punishment. At Robbinsville, corporal punishment takes the form of paddling - a few licks on the backside Matheson delivers with a long wooden paddle.
North Carolina state law describes corporal punishment, as "The intentional infliction of physical pain upon the body of a student as a disciplinary measure."
Robbinsville High School's policy allows students to request a paddling in place of in-school-suspension, or ISS. Last year, 22 students chose it.

ReplyDeleteI love it!! I remember when Tommy Tucker would paddle kids in Jr. High! The "Board of Education" he called it.
ReplyDeleteBack in the early '60s John Tatem at Pocomoke Elementary had a red ping pong paddle with holes drilled in it. I know this from experience!
ReplyDeleteThere are some children that you could beat half to death and it would not change their behavior. I think some children LIKE to be spanked because it verifies that they are the dip sh*t that they are told at home. The studies on corporal punishment are on the mark accurate.
ReplyDeleteBasic educational rule: Children learn by watching adults. If they watch us solve problems with hitting, they will grow to solve their problems with hitting.
