"The have to wear helmets and the ball is a Nurf ball."
Why even play if helmets and Nurf balls are used?!
No helmets and red rubber gym balls are at the part and core of Dodgeball.
If Dodgeball dies, we will mourn. <8^[
Oh, its worse than that.
The kids are not allowed to run even when playing tag, they may walk fast, use one finger and tap lightly on the shoulder (yes they wear helmets)
They can use the swings at recess, must not swing high, just softly.
The monkey bars a gone, they can not run ever.
My granddaughter is ten and she and her friend were telling me about this and laughing at how stupid the school was.
Then they bashed Mickey obama’s food rules at school.
My eight year old grandson, takes snacks to school and before and after school sells them to other kids.
I am waiting for call about that one, and what the consequences will be.
Talked to my daughter and what she thought. What she said, 'hey he is a good little businessman, and he has to pay me back for the snack, and he keeps the excess'. Oh, and they must buy lunches at school. They can bring snacks (which they discourage because you can buy them from the school), but they must be store bought, nothing homemade.
In case you are wondering they live in Highlands Ranch, Colorado. I am sure it's like this everywhere these days.
