School Psychiatrist suspended for display of male genitalia

Gateway School District psychologist Dan Pezzulo has been suspended for displaying a photo of male genitalia during a staff meeting presentation. Stephanie Hogue, mother of seven and president of the Moss Side Middle School Family-Teacher Association, said teachers and parents who talked to her about the incident were appalled.

He has said that "I'll let my performance evaluations and my character speak for me"

In an ironic twist, Pezzulo also hosts a segment on the local cable television channel called "Tips From Dr. Dan." The segments feature messages to youths. In one segment, Pezzulo used street signs to emphasize making smart choices. The "stop sign" urged students to stop and think before making decisions that could impact the rest of their lives.
