BERKELEY (KCBS) – The Berkeley Unified School District will no longer make students clean up bathrooms as a form of discipline, after complaints from the parents of a fifth grade boy.
11-year-old Ishmael Perry said he was just an innocent bystander when a classmate at LeConte Elementary used bullying language in the afterschool programme, but he was threatened with suspension anyway.
Instead, he chose to clean up the school bathrooms for two weeks, until his mother found out, six days into the punishment.

The student should check his privilege next time..
