TITUSVILLE, Fla., Nov. 10 (UPI) -- The principal of a Titusville, Fla., high school said ice has been temporarily banned from the cafeteria after students were caught throwing cubes during lunch.
Titusville High principal Lori Spinner said the soda machines in the cafeteria will not be dispensing ice for a time after several students were caught throwing ice during their lunch period, WKMG-TV, Orlando, Fla., reported Monday.
"There isn't a need for ice," Spinner said. "We've had a few incidents, and they result in messes in the buildings and the potential for students to slip on the floor."
However, some students objected to the move, saying it unfairly punishes the entire school for a actions of a small few.
"I object to the entire student body being treated like children, because of a few immature kids in the cafeteria," senior Kavita Chapla, 18, said. "Why can't those kids just be dealt with rather than punishing everyone who buys lunch with lukewarm drinks?"
