Principal Resigns After Shocking Incident

After reportedly forcing a student to shock themselves with a pen they brought to school, a local elementary school principal has stepped down from her post.

According to school officials, Esther Adames-Jimenez will remain on at Beaver Ridge Elementary School until the end of the school year but another principal will oversee the school. Adames-Jimenez reportedly punished the student for bringing a pen emitting a low electrical current to campus by asking the pupil to turn the pen on himself.

A school spokesperson noted that Roach had been investigated by the state in 2008 for mishandling a national standardized test and a state exam.
