Only a buck? What a bargain! I wish I could have gotten that kind of deal. I had to fake a seven-year-long period:
A second middle school teacher accused of letting students sit out gym class in exchange for paying a daily $1 bribe has been arrested.
Tamara B. Tootle, 39, is facing six counts of bribery, the Escambia County Sheriff's Office said. She turned herself in late Thursday night after warranties were issued for her arrest, said Mike Ward, a spokesman for the sheriff's office. She was later released on bond.
Between August 2004 and May 2005, Tootle told students at Ernest Ward Middle School that they did not have to dress for her physical education class, but would still receive a 100 percent for participation if they gave her $1, authorities said.
Miss Tootle's good thing came to an end when she was ratted out by another PE teacher arrested for doing the same thing.
