You MUST act a certain way or you're suspended, etc. I do get it. I just think that if they're going to make the claim, they need to back it up a bit better to those parents who (unlike me, yayyy) haven't been public school moms for the last *11* years straight and had four children attend.<BR/><BR/>Ganeida, you want to rule American public schools?? Welll, maybe we can amend our agreement. I think you'd get 'em into better shape than they are now if you were in charge. :]Happy Elf Mom (Christine)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15047347624037697311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-72731327799910336942009-01-04T01:14:00.000-06:002009-01-04T01:14:00.000-06:00mrsC: I thought we agreed I was going to govern ov...mrsC: I thought we agreed I was going to govern over here & you were going to run things over there.

And our public schools are a far cry from Hitler's Youth Movement, at least, from what little I know [smile].<BR/><BR/> ~LukeLuke Holzmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07799632321310461828noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-76436147712383475312009-01-01T12:48:00.000-06:002009-01-01T12:48:00.000-06:00Urban school teacher, I've enjoyed our conversatio...Urban school teacher, I've enjoyed our conversation over at your blog. I will pop over and chat with you about "business casual."<BR/><BR/>I really don't care what teachers wear so long as the deathmetal band shirts and political signs are reasonably tasteful. :] <BR/><BR/>But I think you've figured out I don't run things. I teach in my jammies sometimes.Happy Elf Mom (Christine)https://www.blogger.com/profile/15047347624037697311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-77448292325225132572009-01-01T12:46:00.000-06:002009-01-01T12:46:00.000-06:00Mrs C: I have just written a post - nay, a rant - ...Mrs C: I have just written a post - nay, a rant - about a UK teacher who was fired for wearing tracksuit bottoms and trainers to work and I am now curious to know what teachers in the USA are expected to wear....?Margaret Englishhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11910776236752629334noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2212741399857110313.post-7729516234936650772009-01-01T07:25:00.000-06:002009-01-01T07:25:00.000-06:00Mrs C: Happy New Year to you all!
