A Maine high school has apologized after staff accidentally served students baked potting soil at a community hunger-awareness event. A science class had prepared the soil earlier in the day for an experiment.
It happened at the annual Empty Bowl Supper at Medomak Valley High School in Waldoboro, Maine. In a statement from Principal Linda Pease, shared on Facebook, the school said the mix-up was entirely accidental and “absolutely not a prank.”
