Students at a Texas elementary school were forced to drop their pants for for an inspection after feces kept being found on the gym floor.

About two dozen students at the Gustine, TX school were split into groups, separated by gender, in an effort to find the culprit responsible for "poop" that has been appearing on the floor in the school gymnasium.

The kids were told to lower their pants, and those who didn't feel comfortable doing so were reportedly told they had to "because all the kids had to."

Parents were outraged when they learned about the inspections.

Maria Medina says she was furious when her 11-year-old daughter, Eliza, told her what happened at school—saying she felt "uncomfortable, and didn't want to do it." Eliza added that she felt like her privacy was being violated.

Gustine Independent School District Superintendent Ken Baugh addressed the situation and agrees that making kids drop their pants is "not appropriate" and he does not condone that type of discipline.

An investigation is already underway as parents plan to attend a school board meeting Thursday to demand that someone be held accountable.

Do you agree with the way these kids were disciplined?
