MOSCOW - Pay toilets are not unusual, but in school?



For a short time, students at a high school in the southern Russian city of Taganrog had to do more than raise their hands and ask for permission to use the bathroom — they had to fork over cash, NTV television reported Tuesday.


School officials instituted a plan to charge pupils for toilet trips in order to pay for repairs that were needed after students vandalized bathroom fixtures, NTV said. City education authorities quickly halted the practice, NTV reported, without saying how much they had to pay.


The network broadcast part of what it said was an amateur video taken in a school hallway, showing a boy asking a cleaning woman whether he could use the bathroom. Her reply: "Pay."
