This 4th-grader's teacher made him wash off his ashes after Mass on Ash Wednesday
He didn't think his teacher would tell him it was inappropriate and make him wash it off. "It was really bad," William told CNN by phone Friday."I went to the office and I was crying and I felt like I was in trouble."William's teacher has been placed on administrative leave while the Davis School District investigates, officials said in a statement, calling the teacher's actions"unacceptable.
" The teacher handed William an antiseptic wipe and made him remove the ashes in front of his peers, Fisher said. "I was furious," she told CNN."This is who we are. This is part of our life as Catholics."Fisher noted there's a large Mormon population in Utah, but she said she's lived there for decades, and nothing like this has ever happened to her."I was just kind of shocked," she said.
