View Comments A bill that would ban corporal punishment in Louisiana s public schools cleared the state House Education Committee Wednesday after testimony described the practice as egregious, violent and child abuse. Metairie Republican Rep. Stephanie Hilferty s House Bill 324 would outlaw the practice of paddling, spanking or any other form of corporal punishment in the state s 69 public school systems. An amendment excluded private and parochial schools from the bill. Corporal punishment is state-sponsored child abuse, testified Susan East Nelson, executive director of the Louisiana Partnership for Children and Families. The bill advanced on a 9-2 vote by the committee, which sent it to the full House.
