Teacher ate live worms after pupils passed tests

Teachers at a Central Texas elementary school rewarded their students for finishing their end-of-year tests by performing a series of dares, including eating live worms.
As a reward for exceeding school goals on the State of Texas Assessments of Academic Readiness tests, four fifth-grade teachers from Clements/Parsons school in Copperas Cove accepted a challenge from students to do some “gross but awesome” things.
One teacher had to kiss a guinea pig, another kissed a bulldog and another ate frog legs. But reading and language arts teacher Michele Cox had to eat live earthworms.
“Worms taste pretty much like dirt”, Cox said. “But it’s okay. I chased it with chocolate. It was really great, seeing (students’) reactions and the fact you actually followed through with what you said you would do,” Cox added. “Most of them don’t think you’ll do it.”
