A West Valley School District official warned teacher Sue Graham in a letter that similar behavior in the future will result in disciplinary action, including termination.

The boy's father had said his son arrived home in April with the plastic bag of feces and a note that read "This little turd was found on the floor in my room."

The boy was moved out of Graham's classroom after the incident.

The May letter was released Thursday in response to a public disclosure request from KIMA-TV. The district had previously said "appropriate action" was taken against the longtime teacher.

Reprimanded? How? She should be fired because of her absolutely sicko method of discipline for that young child. Would she next send home the extracted eyeball from a child who was in a fight with another student? Totally bizarre for the school authority and parent of her “victim” to just drop this incident.

She should have been fired. what is the school thinking? The woman is obviously burned out, the family should sue for emotional distress and sue the teacher personally then sue the school for placing the child in danger. Whether the child dropped the turd or not —a grown up placing that in the child’s backpack represented gross neglect and endangerment—human feces are unhealthy and carry lots of diseases. Someone should let the health dept know what happened and the ACLU should get involved. LOL
