Delta teacher resigns after letting students hit tardy classmate

A Delta School District spokesman says the high school English teacher who punished a tardy student by letting other students hit him has resigned. Delta School District spokesman John Jones says 22-year-old Brian Havel is no longer at the school, The Daily Sentinel in Grand Junction reported. Police say Havel demanded that the student do a certain amount of push-ups or sit-ups in a set amount of time when he arrived late for class, then allowed several students to hit him when he did not complete the exercise.

I think that if kids are tardy to class they should be punished but not like this I think it is cruel that the kid who is tardy is hit by other students. The doing exercises is fine like push-ups or sit-up but the beating is to far. Also it is a good think that the teacher is not in schools right now.
