If you're a school teacher looking for a creative way to get a paid leave, just ask Brian Sullivan.
Sullivan, a band teacher at Jefferson High School in Monroe, is on a paid leave pending an investigation after he allegedly duct-taped a student's ankles to a chair to correct her posture, Fox 2 reports.
Some fellow students tell FOX 2's Andrea Isom the teacher just did it as a joke and did not mean anything cruel by it.
"[The student] wasn't upset. She just kind of sat there and was like, 'Okay,' and just dealt with it. It was another student that actually told and had a problem with it," says Andrew Poppenhager, a fellow band student. He says she stayed taped to the chair for about ten minutes at the end of class.
