Kids who bullied bus monitor suspended for a year, have to do community service

(CNN) -- Four middle school students caught on camera verbally abusing their bus monitor have been suspended for a year and will be required to complete 50 hours of community service, school district officials said Friday.

Recorded by a student with a cell phone camera on what was the second-to-last day of school, the brazen bullying went viral and spurred international outrage.

The incident occurred in Greece, New York, near Rochester.

"Following individual meetings this week with school and district administrators, each family waived their right to a hearing and agreed to one-year suspensions from school and regular bus transportation," the Greece Central School District said in a statement.

Thoughts? Honestly I think they deserve it.

JUUUUUUSTIIIIIICE!

Good! I still think the one who was talking about cutting her should be expelled though...and all of them need to get the crap beat out of them, but I guess that can't be officially administered. >.>

Very 1950s in here.

Good. The punishment fits the crime. Now they can feel the shame of being held back a year because they were monsters, just like they tried to shame that lady.

Unfortunately, I doubt they'll be held back. Their parents will just put them in a new school. This was essentially expelling them without actually doing so.

Their parents won't let them forget what they've done. That's a plus in my book.

Yeah, the touchy feely people have really ingrained themselves into parenting and what happens nowadays are a direct result of it. Parents no longer want to take responsibility for their kids as well as their kids actions. Maybe the judge should sentence the parents to community service along side their kids.

Good, I would never have treated an elder like that when I was a kid. And I can tell you, my bus driver was mean as hell and would stop the bus and put kids in their place if they acted up.

Meanwhile, the fundraiser that was set up to raise $5,000 for a vacation for her is closing in on $700,000 with three weeks to go... Not a bad tradeoff.Dark__Link

I'm for some sort of punishment... but a year? :? These idiots 'need' an education, maybe detention for a year to keep them at the school learning.

Both.

"Following individual meetings this week with school and district administrators, each family waived their right to a hearing and agreed to one-year suspensions from school and regular bus transportation,"

Both.

Hopefully this'll be the last piece of news on it. The entire situation is kinda retarded. VanHelsingBoA64

this is seriously deserved.

I think the bus monitor deserved it. She had shifty eyes.

Should've made it 100 hours.

The fvcktards deserve an ass kicking more than anything. At least the woman got justice.

Good riddance. I hope the lady gets a nice vacation out of that pot of gold :P

Too harsh imo

Sure, they deserve a punishment but I think this is all down to the media coverage, they just want to show an example of them
