Salem Students Suspended Over Re-tweet

(Salem, OR)  --  The Salem school district says it has suspended about 20 students for re-tweeting a Twitter post about a McKay High School teacher who is accused of being a flirt.  Assistant Principal Erik Jesperson says the re-tweet is a violation of the district's zero-tolerance policy regarding "acts of hazing, harassment, sexual harassment, intimidation, bullying, cyber-bullying, and menacing."  Jesperson told KOIN-TV that families who disagree with the decision can contact McKay High directly.
