No no no! Absolutely not. Physical discipline in a parental option. Not a teacher option. I would not sign it. I would not allow it. I would write a formal letter to the school and school board complaining. Humiliation and physical discipline is not an effective for teaching (hello this is a school!) a child proper behaviors. And better yet with that attitude I would be removing my child from her care. No matter what grade. I don't spoil my child. I have lots of expectations of her. I address issues as they happen. But nobody gets to treat my child like that. And if she can't find an appropriate way to teach a child then maybe she needs to walk the fence until she figures it out.
