So...why are they measuring the girl’s height and weight in any case? Are they buying her some new clothes?

Meanwhile, the educational performance of American students is near the bottom of most surveys of education systems in the Western democracies. On average, American literacy and numeracy skills among age groups from 16 to 65 are well below average, seriously lagging behind Japan and Northern and Central Europe.

Zero tolerance, political correctness, and obsessing over fat kids are symptomatic of the failure of American public education. Granted, violence, drug use, and obesity are serious problems in our society. However, schools are being used for too many things other than education.

My school did that back in the 70s. Part of our PE class, followed by units on nutrition and exercise. The "fat letters" are the new part.

I was considered overweight then. I look at my pictures and wish I could get back to that!!
