A Paradise Valley High School music teacher whose students performed at one of President's Barack Obama inauguration events has been put on administrative leave after taking 40 students to eat at a Hooters in downtown Phoenix .

Mary Segall, a choir director at the northeast Phoenix school, accompanied choral students at a performance at Arizona Center last week. While there, the students ate lunch at the Hooters restaurant, said Judi Willis, spokeswoman for the district.

Segall told her principal that the restaurant, known for its busty waitresses in tight shirts and orange shorts, was the only place that could accommodate a group of that size. She could not be reached for comment.

Kids go to HS in their pajamas or dressed even skimpier if there's no dress code....what's the issue? Usually field trip arrangements have to made in advance, so some admin dropped the ball in approving it & the teacher is taking the heat.

Old fashioned puritanism. While HS students are sexting each other, the geezers that run Arizona are worried about this? "We got trouble, right here in River City, T-R-O-U-B-L-E."
