Sunday, February 8, 2009  Betsy Ramsdale  I bet when Betsy
Ramsdale posted this photo of herself on Facebook she never
expected that would result in her becoming a topic of discussion
across the nation.  Video, from WKOW.  BEAVER DAM (WKOW) --
Beaver Dam school officials placed a middle school teacher on
administrative leave after discovering a photograph of the
teacher with a gun on the teacher's Facebook page.  In the
photo, teacher Betsy Ramsdale is training a rifle at the camera.
Ramsdale emailed 27 News in response to our inquiries saying she
"removed the photo immediately" and that she is not "interested
in any controversy." Ramsdale did not comment on her motivation
for posting the photo.  Schools superintendent Donald Childs
told 27 News he is unaware of any sinister intent on the
teacher's part and said the use of the photo "appears to be poor
judgment."  Childs said the Facebook photo was brought to the
attention of school district officials by a concerned staff
member at Beaver Dam Middle School.
