Todays reflection:
Can you connect the dots in the three stories below? Ive provided some hints along the way.
Story #1:
Paul Robeson High Schools 2014 prom theme: This is Are Story. Drafted by prom committee, reviewed and approved by their TA (teacher advisor).
And since this is the Senior Prom, we assume that this was written by one of the lucky 25% who are/our actually going to graduate high school.
Story #2:
LOS ANGELESA California judge declared the state's strong teacher-tenure laws unconstitutional in a rebuke that promises to spur similar challenges around the country.
The student plaintiffs in the lawsuit against the state and two teachers unions successfully argued that statutes protecting teacher tenure, dismissal procedures and "last-in, first-out" layoff policies serve more often to keep ineffective instructors in the schoolshurting students' chances to succeed.
On second thought, perhaps that Prom program slogan was written four the students by won of there teechurs:
SAN FRANCISCO: "I am confident that the Court of Appeal will reverse this decision," said James Finberg, lead attorney for both the California Teachers Association and the California Federation of Teachers. "Having the security that you won't be fired without cause is one of the things that makes teaching an attractive profession."
Teachers protesting Governor Walkers unreasonable demands during negotiatins;
Story #3:
According to the latest Reuters Poll: Obamas Approval Rating is 37.5% and falling.

How many ways can you misspell school? If your answer is more than won, thank a teacher.

No more cursive either. A lot of high school seniors can’t even write no less read. Have you ever looked at their so-called signatures?
Thanks NOBO.
Even my spelling isn’t this bad!
How can they learn anything if they can't even speak English? Some "Amish" the other day in some news article. "All I know, it ain't come from they house". Really?
My typos can get bad.
But, uh, that is..
*Scratches head*
EVERY “Johnny” that I know can read.

My wife is teaching a GRADUATE class and her students, preparing to get their master’s degree, have writing skills that in my day wouldn’t get them through high school.

the popularization of “ghetto” “english” in the popular “music “culture” glorifies ignance .
edumocation isnt even ON the bus!
"Kentucky Education Association sends book with state's name misspelled to juniors"
So the newspaper editor made it sound like they misspelled "Kentucky" to "juniors".
That's even worse than spelling it "Kentucy".

The Fault of the Mobile Debice.
