KERSHAW COUNTY, S.C. (WCBD) – An unwanted guest slithered into a South Carolina high school leaving one brave teacher to wrangle the reptile.

An Agriculture Education Instructor from Andrew Jackson High School, Mr. Young, caught the non-venomous snake in his class on Monday.

The school posted photos of the capture on their social media pages.

“This is too much excitement for day one,” said one person on the school’s Facebook page. “Oh wow time to change the school mascot,” said another.

The school said Mr. Young and his students relocated the snake outside.
