SALEM — An eighth-grade science teacher, who is a Democratic candidate for state office, won't face suspension for showing students a derogatory, profanity-filled Internet film about the president.

Limestone County Superintendent Barry Carroll said Thursday that he talked with West Limestone High School teacher Steve White about showing the film.

"It's a personnel matter, and it's been handled," Carroll said. "Both I and Principal Stan Davis discussed the matter with him. He's not on suspension or anything like that."

White has qualified to run for District 4 state representative, which includes portions of Limestone and Morgan counties.

2. Looks like the stuff for science class since
the * administration wants to take on science ala "intellegent design". Ya wanna bring your Bible into the science class, then let the teacher bring in a poltical film. Ya want politics out of science, then take the Bible out of the class, too.
