As for the private school, there were nuns & regular teachers but the principal was a nun & I was sent to her office a few times. She had a paddle & you would get "pops".

Then in high school, one day I ran through a locker room door in the gym, knocking down the janitor on the other side, all right in front of a coach. He was the strictest one too. He had a paddle about 24" x 4" x 1". He told me to grab my ankles & I got ten "pops"! I'll never forget that.

That janitor & I became good friends because one day he came into my dads shop when I worked for my dad. I recognized him & him me.
Not only the Janitor but the School District, and the Janitor would probably have to register as a sex offender if he lost the law suit.
