Student Speaks Out After Paddle Incident | Tucson News

from Tucson News Today | 2 Min Now | The Daily News Now!

A Texas high school sophomore is speaking out after being paddled three times during football practice — a shocking incident that unfolded after he missed school due to his mom’s car accident and wore the wrong pants. The student says he was humiliated, forced to run in circles while others laughed, and never told his parents beforehand. His father insists he never consented to corporal punishment, challenging the district’s policy that doesn’t require parental notification. While Texas law allows it, the district says parents must opt out in writing — but this student’s family says they were never given that choice.
