Three students aged 14 to 16 were arrested Monday for fighting at the Ombudsman alternative school on Barnett Shoals Road, Athens-Clarke County police said.
The fight reportedly began in a classroom where a girl threw a binder at another student whom she felt disrespected her, according to police. After a staff member broke up the altercation, the girl was walking to a restroom when a third student began taunting her and another fight broke out, police said.
All three students were charged with disorderly conduct and released to parents, police said.
