A Texas high school student opted to take a spanking rather than serve another day of in-school suspension, but she was left bruised and blistered after she was spanked by her male vice principal, who violated the school's policy on corporal punishment, reports WFAA.
Taylor Santos, a high-achieving sophomore at Springtown High School, said she didn't know that a classmate had copied her homework, but the school assigned both students to two days of in-school suspension. Taylor volunteered to take a paddling instead, to avoid missing any classes. Texas is one of the 19 states that still allows spanking in school, but it requires that parents give permission, which Santos' mother, Anna Jorgensen agreed to.

'He used too much force," she said, and is furious that rather than taking action against the vice-principal, Springtown ISD Superintendent Mike Kelley asked the school board to scrap the same-sex policy, claiming that he can be difficult to adhere to in some schools, because of the ratio of male to female teachers.
