Discipline during my school years.
![]()
I had two infractions in 5th grade that warranted the paddle. My female homeroom teacher had the honors. My parents were never informed by the school and I wasn't about tell them myself. I would have received double at home.
In 7th grade, I was in a fight. My male principle had one of those. No more fights for me. By middle school you graduated to male teachers swinging the paddle.
Parents didn't know about that one either.
