Back to the Good Old Days.
Decades ago, I was shocked when I saw my friend’s children’s school list and saw toilet paper listed. We had never had to bring what the school was being paid per child to supply. I never did ask if the teachers and staff had to do the same.
We had to do the same thing in Kansas, except for the toilet paper. I guess you don’t have kids in school. We had four. We had a huge list of supplies we had to give the kids each year.
“The press service of the Petrozavodsk administration told Pod’yom that an investigation was conducted following complaints from parents.”
I guess the difference between the US and Russia is that in Russia, the ISSUE is investigated the authorities, whereas in the US, the PARENTS are investigated by the FBI.
You've been a busy Freeper on a thread begun six months ago:
My students in Boca Raton were given a list of things parents had to buy and bring to school.
Along with pancils, paper, felt-tip pens, and other school supplies, were hand sanitizer, liquid soap, wet wipes and other sanitary supplies.
My sister in MA told me she had a similar list for her grandson.
STAPLES even has pre-wrapped boxes already put together with the lists from the schools.
They weren’t cheap either.
In case you didn’t know, public education is government run here in the US as well.
And the results aren’t much better.
Can you tell me something that’s “government run” that is an example of great customer service, efficiency, where the leaders in that organization are held accountable for failures?
