It’s pretty unremarkable, requiring only a PA announcement.

You're absolutely right, because we all now that when there is a PA announcement all of the kids in school immediately clam up and pay attention.

Gimme a break.

Any school relying on PAs alone to convey that kind of information is asking for trouble.

“You’re absolutely right, because we all now that when there is a PA announcement all of the kids in school immediately clam up and pay attention. “

As a former student who ignored my share of PA and “Indian Action Morning News” tv programs, your sarcastic remarks ring true.

But so what?

The kid missed an annoucement, and as a result was unprepared. Sometimes, when I’m at work, people don’t read their emails all the way through, and they end up missing pertinent info!! Then guess what? They look a little bit dumb.

School sometimes = real life.

Another important life lesson learned!

“Any school relying on PAs alone to convey that kind of information is asking for trouble.”

What kind of information? That labs would be closed after school? That’s so mundane!! This isn’t “Your teacher died this morning on the way to work”, this is.. labs are closed today after school!

Do people really need to be life coached in two different forms every step of the way??
