• "Appropriate disciplinary action has been taken" in Hazard, Kentucky, after photos surfaced on social media allegedly depicting students giving lap dances to high school staff, USA Today reported.
The incidents from Oct. 26 were part of homecoming week; Superintendent Sondra Combs said festivities included a "man pageant," which somehow led to the lap dances by scantily clad students.
One of the grateful recipients was the school's principal, Donald "Happy" Mobelini, who is also the mayor of Hazard.
"Using this as a teachable moment," Combs said, "we will provide social media training for our students and staff."
But, she emphasized, the district "has a tradition of excellence and academics and everything we do" -- apparently including suggestive bumping and grinding. [USA Today, 10/28/2021]
