If you ever doubted that idiots are in charge, here is exhibit 1. Tampons in the Boys bathrooms.
Well, when I was 10 to 14, free tampons in the boys room, would have been too hard to resist. Those are getting flushed. Toilets overflowing, just way too much fun. Hope the school has the budget for that. May need to have full time monitors in the boys room.
So she's worried about the cost and not the sheer idiocy of the idea.......
It’s crazy thinking, isn’t it? Many of us have the Neanderthal notion that only females use these menstrual products. Where do we get such ideas??
Nope - tampons for boys.
They grow some really good weed in Oregon, so I hear -
THAT could explain this...
Except when I have a nose bleed or need a nifty fire starter.
The school board members understand cost ... what they don’t understand is that their ideas are sheer lunacy
Tampons in the boys room
Tampons in the boys room
Now Teacher, don’t you fill me up with your rule
‘Cause everybody knows that tampons ain’t allowed in school
BINGO! At first I was buoyed that somebody finally had the cajones to challenge this utterly stupid law. Then I was very dismayed to see she is using cost to challenge it. Maybe going after idiocy is too steep a hill to climb and she settled on cost to reach the same objective.
Boys need them to wax their cars.

And some of the best in the Medford area....but it’s relatively sane, by Oregon standards.
public administators should be fired for such gross waste of taxpayer funds
Tampons in the boy’ bathroom is just a distraction from serious issues in Oregone’s classrooms.
Oregon Gov. Kate Brown says illegal immigrants are “the heart and soul of our culture and the backbone of our economy”
Then this!
Oregon students shouldn’t have to prove they can write or do math to get a diploma, lawmakers decide!

Students in the class of 2021 did not have to prove they could write or do math at a basic level to earn their diplomas. A bill headed to Gov. Kate Brown would prohibit any such requirement at least until 2027.A bill to prohibit Oregon schools from requiring students to show they can read, write and do math at a basic high school level is headed to Gov. Kate Brown after lawmakers gave final approval Wednesday. (The bill was sign by the governor, and it is now in effect in Oregone!)
The idea is to hit pause on the requirements, in place since 2009 but already suspended during the pandemic, at least until the class of 2024 gets their diplomas and for Oregon to thoughtfully reexamine its graduation requirements in the meantime. A report recommending what the new standards should be is due to the Legislature and Oregon Board of Education by September 2022.
But since Oregon has long insisted it would not impose new graduation requirements on students who have already begun high school, new requirements would not take effect until the class of 2027 at the very earliest. So at least five more classes could be expected to graduate without needing to demonstrate roughly 10th grade level proficiency in math and writing.
The decision to remove the skills requirement was largely but not entirely a party-line one, with Democrats staunchly opposing the proficiency rules and Republicans decrying what they see as a lowering of academic standards.
A spokesperson for Brown told The Oregonian/OregonLive Wednesday she has yet to decide whether she will sign the bill, veto it or allow it to become law without her signature. (She proudly signed the bill!)
Oregone, unlike other states, did not require students to pass a particular standardized test or any test at all. Students could show their ability to use English and do math via about five different tests or by completing an in-depth classroom project judged by their own teachers. In reality, most schools relied primarily on standardized tests and most students easily passed them.
But demonstrating proficiency proved most challenging for students who learned English as a second language, students with disabilities and students of color.
Officials on the Oregon Board of Education, when they enacted the “essential skills” graduation requirement more than a decade ago, said they hoped no student would be denied a diploma for lacking the skills but that schools would step up and help juniors and seniors who hadn’t mastered enough English or math to do so. Many high schools created special math and writing workshop classes for seniors who needed to demonstrate those skills to get their diplomas.
The bill calls on the diverse committee studying graduation requirements to come up with a recommendation “with the goal of ensuring that the processes and outcomes related to the requirements for high school diplomas are equitable, accessible and inclusive.”

It is simple, Eliminating schools as places to learn and making them serve as day care centers all day. Beginning with breakfast, morning breaks, lunch, afternoon breaks and a dinner before going home. Maybe midnight basketball.
Teachers and their unions will still be paid. Any so called classes will be conducted by supposedly graduates, and the highly paid teachers will monitor those former classes on Zoom.
More Gardeners, janitors and other custodial care at the former schools will require more union workers, managers and whatevers!
So our taxes will go up for the above B$!

Any school official on board with this should be immediately fired for stupidity.
Getting rid of them because of the cost accomplishes nothing.
Insanity!
Everyone, including the wokehole activists, know men don't get pregnant or have periods.
This is all about forcing you to call girls who want to be boys, boys. Forcing you to concur with an absurdity.
