The officer is the tip of the spear so should be the last resort taken and used. Called in to do a job and did it. Would the result been any different if they left her there and called the police? The student caused this by failing to follow the rules and authority should be expelled from school. Period! End of story. Actions with such results would quickly stop any further occurrences from happening again IMO.

Sorry but I never need to lay a hand on either of my sons, but was willing to and they knew it. The fear of this made them aware of bad acts and consequences.

BTW what good purpose is served by having students and cell phones in a classroom? They should be placed into a big box when entering class and retrieved at the end of class. At the very least on silent and kept out of sight or then taken away till the end of the day if not followed.
