Principal uses zip ties for saggy pants
ST. PETERSBURG (AP) – A St. Petersburg high school principal has a solution for boys who come to school with saggy britches – he hands them a plastic zip tie.
Kevin Gordon, the new principal at F-rated Gibbs High School, says he ordered thousands of zip ties for students who come to school wearing their pants too low and don’t have a belt to hitch them up.
Gordon said Thursday that through the first three days of school, administrators have already used 50 of the ties.
