Early Friday morning, our Gibson cafeteria staff were following protocol, washing bananas to serve our students. All of a sudden, that mundane task turned into anything but. NCSD cafe employees discovered a scorpion in the bananas. It was quickly contained. Our cafeteria and custodial staff followed all protocols and no staff or students were harmed in the discovery. Instead, our High School Zoology students were able to capitalize on the discovery and feed it crickets and study it under a glow light. We believe the scorpion traveled to Norwich all the way from Guatemala, in the banana box.
We are grateful for our employees who followed all safety protocols.
