A Shenandoah, Iowa elementary music teacher has been placed on administrative leave following an alleged incident in which the instructor encouraged her students to spit at a peer.

Alex Kindopp tells KETV that it all started when her 9-year-old son Jaxon did a "raspberry," or sticking his tongue out and blubbering, at a classmate. Spotting him, the Shenandoah Elementary music teacher reportedly asked the boy how he would feel if others did the same to him.

"Everyone gathered around me and she said, 'Ladies and gentlemen, spit away,'" Jaxon told KETV. The instruction prompted his classmates to surround him and spit on his face and shoulders, the boy said.
