More than 30 students held a protest outside an Eastern Kentucky school Friday.

It happened Friday morning outside the Knott Central High School. School officials say students walked out of class to protest the bullying of another student last week. However, they also say the appropriate punishment was taken against the student doing the bullying.

"The student that was involved had been disciplined, but we were not allowed to reveal the disciplinary measures because of confidentiality for students," said Knott County Superintendent Kimberly King.

Officials say the protest was a short one and the students involved returned to class.
