Apperently the Grand Island School district does stupid RIGHT! Boy howdy.
My Daughter teaches some sign to kids at that age level. She would just go off on that admins office.
I got me a feeling that the good folks of Nebraska will let the school district know how to "let it be".

if you want to know a big part of whats wrong with this country; look at how stupid the people are who run public schools.

My dear God, there is an arsehole born every minute, and they all gravitate to positions on boards, or counsels, or figures of semi authority.

Who's worse, them for being a bunch of pillocks, or us for putting them in positions to govern?

The level of stupid in that "request" is beyond ridiculous.

Every time I think I've heard or seen it all.. something even more ridiculous comes along. :der: My daughter has just started college with the intention of becoming a sign language interpreter .. can't wait to hear what she and her teachers have to say about this.

Read about this yesterday, PC gone amok, yup. Thing about it though, he should be taught ASL instead of SEE. Other than that, zero tolerance means zero sense, again, still.

Sorry folks I saw the other one first, here's what I said there.

The mother storms into the parent-teacher conference on the second day of school, visibly upset.

"Why were you saying my daughter's name wrong?"

The teacher rechecks her roll and repeats to the mother what is written there. "La-Sha, is that correct" she asks?

"No! That's wrong!" the mother says. "How else would you spell Ladasha!"

:D

What in the hell would they do to this kid if his name was Gunner. The world is chock full of liberal a--holes.

Then, wouldn't the correct spelling be "La-a"? :D
