ARACHATTACK: Wisconsin school forced to close after student and teacher bitten by spiders
MANITOWOC COUNTY, WISCONSIN: A Wisconsin classroom is plagued by dozens of spiders forcing the school to close temporarily last week. Classes were back in session at the Wilson Middle School in Manitowoc, roughly 40 miles south of Green Bay, but after a student and a teacher were reportedly bit by yellow sac spiders causing a bad reaction to its symptoms, the classes were immediately shut down on Friday, December 9.
Speaking of its first horrifying incident on Thursday, administrators say a student sitting in a classroom brushed a spider off of her arm. While they were no symptoms of a spider bite, however, her arm became itchy and swollen over time. The school nurse provided medical attention and the student's parents were swiftly notified, read a statement, according to FOX 31.
