Students expelled for bowl of poop

A student who defecated in a lunchroom bowl triggered a series of events that culminated in the recent walkout by four workers in the Fort Defiance High School cafeteria, The News Virginian has learned.

In all, five students were suspended or expelled from the Verona school - including two whose mothers worked in the cafeteria and who were defending their mothers’ honor.

It all began Feb. 9 when two Fort students - including a guidance counselor’s son - bet a third student $15 he would not defecate in a bowl.
