Fri May 16, 8:25 PM ET BURGAW, N.C. - Going potty without a partner can lead to punishment for students at a Burgaw elementary school, but parents want the policy flushed.

The Star-News of Wilmington reported that students at Malpass Corner Elementary School can't use the bathroom alone because of an ongoing graffiti problem. A letter to parents from the principal says students can go to the bathroom as a class or in pairs.
Students who go to the bathroom when they aren't supposed to are punished with a silent lunch. They must sit at a table and eat lunch alone without talking.
Parent Jaime Whitmore describes the policy as "cruel and unusual punishment." Some parents are organizing to get the policy changed.

You gotta be kidding me? This won't last long before it is repealed and changed

At the schools here they have installed security cameras in the main parts of the bathroom, mostly in accordance with their strict anti-bullying policy, but also to prevent graffiti.
