ATTICA, Ind. (WLFI) - We now know the punishment for the Attica Elementary School principal who made objectionable posts to his public Twitter account.

News 18 confronted Principal Dusty Goodwin late last month with the tweets after the school board meeting.

Superintendent Derek Marshall says Goodwin has been suspended five days for the tweets, with the suspension beginning last Friday.

You may remember, in a press release last Friday, Superintendent Derek Marshall stated disciplinary action had been taken, but declined to give additional information.

But state law requires that information is released if an employee is suspended, demoted or discharged.
