ANDERSON, Ind. - Some students at Highland Middle School in Anderson got a peek of their teacher's bare breasts on a school-issued iPad while in class.
Those students have been suspended and threatened with expulsion.
The school district said it has taken preventative action against the teacher, but they wouldn't specify what action, and she is still a member of the school staff.
"The picture showed up of the teacher topless," said Joshua Troutt, 13, describing the incident that occurred at Highland Middle School.
He and three other students were in their classroom, playing a game on a school-issued iPad.
He said one of the students pressed a button, and a photograph with his teacher's bare chest was revealed.
"It's not our fault that she had the photo on there," Troutt said. "We couldn't do anything not to look at it, if it just popped up when he pressed the button. It was her fault that she had the photo on there. Her iPhone synched to it. She had to have pressed something to make all of her photos synch on there."

Nevertheless, Troutt and other students have been suspended and threatened with expulsion.
Clark would not do an on-camera interview, but she said the students' punishment will not be changed. If parents disagree with it, they can appeal.
Thank the Lord it wasn't me that was said to, I probably would have had to be restrained from going across the desk at her.
Stupid teacher. She should be fired straight away along with whoever is threatening the kids.
It’s become obvious that about a quarter or so of public school employees are mentally disabled and should be no where in the direct vacinity of a kid.

Both the teacher and the Asst. Sup. should be fired — teacher for the act; Asst. Sup. for stupidity. The kids should be reinstated.
1.) Was she hot?
2.) May we see the pics?
"waiting for the FR mug shot to deliver my verdict"
There has to be more to the story than this. It’s not believable that the students would be suspended if this just popped up. They must have been in a directory they shouldn’t have been in or something.
Pasties???
Who cares about the teacher’s boobs. I’m pissed that they had school issued I-Pads.
That was my first thought also, what were they doing playing games on an I-Pad during school anyway?
Here in Indiana they’re going heavy with iPads.
Significant cost savings over textbooks.
I realize Apple is on the FR unacceptable list, but the textbook publishers probably fail on the same criteria.
Okay, you got a LOL out me on that one...
Despite being located close by, I’m unable (so far) to find a picture for the FR jury to vote on.
My two kids cost me $300 this year in textbook rentals between the two of them, I am so sick of Indiana doing this, for 14 years I’ve had to pay some ludicrous price for a POS old worn out old textbook.
On a side note, why the heck did they go with iPads and not Kindle? Heck of a price difference there...
You’ve obviously never worked in a school and apparently didn’t read the article either. The teacher SYNCED her iPhone with the school supplied iPads, probably not intentionally, and had the topless photo of herself on her iPhone. The discipline action is entirely believable given most schools “zero tolerance” policy on so many things. So also is the administration trying to protect the teacher. Let’s just say todays public schools aren’t exactly staffed with the best and the brightest.
Seems to me that elimination of the public school system altogether would be the most significant cost savings of them all.
