Ok this is just plain disgusting and weird... I do hope that the teacher gets disciplined and that the school revises their policy.

SALISBURY, Maryland - A teacher who did not have time to escort three students to the restroom is under fire for allegedly telling them to urinate in a soda bottle.

The incident happened Friday at Salisbury Middle School, where restroom vandalism led to a policy that some students had to be escorted to the restroom. Students said the eighth grade teacher _ who was not identified by the school pending a review of the matter _ could not find anyone to escort three students and told them to urinate into a soda bottle.

"In our judgement, now, the students did not do anything to warrant disciplinary action," Field told The Associated Press. "They did what they were told to do. We hold the adult responsible for what happened."

1. Throughout her elementary school career, my child refused to use the school restrooms.

They were grossly dirty (from kids' vandalism AND from neglect) and the stalls had no doors.
