Former Neosho kindergarten teacher Debra Scott still has a Nov.9 pretrial hearing scheduled on six counts of endangering the welfare of a minor, according to court records, but the case appears to have already been decided.
Newton County Circuit Court records indicate Ms.Scott, who resigned her teaching position just prior to the opening of the 2008-2009 school year, pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor charge of littering.
She was given a six-month sentence, which was suspended, and then she was placed on probation with the requirement that she perform 40 hours of community service- 35 hours of picking up trash and five hours speaking to prospective teachers at Missouri Southern State University "regarding the role of teacher as a role model."
Ms. Scott was accused of taking six high school girls to a home in Diamond, where the girls trashed the yard, leaving everything from a dead animal to a bathroom fixture.
