HAVEN, Kan. (AP) — Students at Haven High School will have to look at each other while dancing next school year.

The south-central Kansas school district says a type of dancing known as grinding will be banned at school functions. During a grinding dance, the students dance back-to-front with the person in back making a grinding motion.

School board member Bobbie Rohling says the dancing is "X-rated" and too much of it is occurring at school dances.

The Hutchinson News reports (http://bit.ly/1MOgSRA) several other Kansas schools have banned the dance in recent years, including Inman, Goddard and McPherson.
