FOX CHAPEL, Pa. -- A Pennsylvania school board may be looking to revise its policies on show-and-tell in class.
A parent brought the arm of a human cadaver to school Tuesday in Fox Chapel, then opened it up during a discussion about surgery. A fifth-grader fainted.
Dr. Michael Horowitz, a neurosurgeon who has a child in the school, performed the demonstration.
Some parents complained and officials in the district near Pittsburgh promised a review.
Horowitz, who showed students the location of nerves and other parts of the arm, said he was surprised by the complaints.
He's done similar lectures at the school with eyes, ears and a brain. And no one's ever complained before.
The pupil who fainted was back in class Wednesday.
