Messy Room Gets Bedford School Board Member Disciplined

After Andrew Mizak called 9-1-1 to report that his 28-year-old son threw a plate of food and made a fist at him after being asked to clean his room, he admitted that he may have gone too far in making the call and declined to press charges, stating that he did not want to harm his son's political career. Unfortunately, the embarrassing incident has had an impact on his career already. Mizsak's son, also named Andrew, is a member of the Bedford School Board, who voted this week to discipline him for his behavior.

On Tuesday, the school board voted to remove him from two liaison positions, and passed a resolution to explore publicly censuring Mizsak. Mizsak voted no on both measures.

Bedford school board president Tim Tench said that while the infamous incident was a personal matter, it reflected badly on the school district and its board.
