BIG BROTHER: California students get tracking devices


A California preschool is outfitting students with a jersey that has a tracking device to automatically take attendance and determine if the kids have eaten yet. I'd imagine the local teenage hackers will have fun with this.

NYC Teachers Stashed Stolen Money In School


PS 149, you're so GANGSTA! 

From the article:
Officials say that former school business manager Katina Williams wrote more than $30,000 in checks payable to cash for unclear expenses, diverted the school funds into three bank accounts between 2005 and 2007, then apparently cashed them herself. Her frequent use of the checks "suggests a portion" of the money "was stolen." But Williams claims that she was following orders from Principal Shaniquia Dixon, and she called the DOE on Dixon: "It wasn't me; it was for her. All I was doing was following instructions. After I told her I wasn't going to do it anymore, I was ... fired from the school."

Mississippi Middle Schools Separates Class by Race


Remember that movie with Pauli Shore where he is a frozen cave man who thaws out and joins the rest of society? Could someone find the people with the technology to do that and point it on over at Mississippi?

For the love of god, this middle school has decided it's a good idea to have race requirements for various student government offices. Only white kids can run for class president, if you're black and in 8th grade, you can run for vice ( but not 7th or 6th graders) and

Anything we can do to condition them early so we don't end up with any black US presidents again -- I suppose allowing a black VP is a concession we should be willing to make to keep the presidential spots whitebread.

F&^%*$ ME!

"Hail Hilter." Say what? No, no, no, he was just quoted in a Pa. high school yearbook! The quote reads, "And in the last analysis, success is what matters," telling all students that the end justifies the means.

High school teacher asks class to plan terror attack


A young Australian teacher instructed the class to explain how they would plan a terror attack and which innocent group they would target.

Sounds more like an exercise in violence and crude thinking, not an activitiy that teaches tolerance.

High School Students bring gun to school




Two high school students brought a gun to school and failed at being inconspicuous about it. If you're going to store something like that in you backpack...pass it to your friend in the bathroom, not out in public. Despite obvious fears of devious and dangerous plots, the two were found out after a third person noticed the boy handing the gun over to a teenage girl. Thankfully, this was before anything bad could happen...both students are currently at a youth detention center.

It appears that some cheesy high school horror film is being taped at Conway High School or even worse a death occurred because Horry Electrics discovered a human skull there!

Roadway Misspelling: "SHCOOL"




"School" does not equal "Shcool." A roadside crew misspelled the word "school" as if they've never been. Time for a course refresher or two... especially since they misspelled the school's name, Guilford on a detour sign two weeks earlier!

Using High School as a Means to Steal




Stealing=not cool! Posing as a student=not alright. And both illegal for that matter...

It's even worse when vulnerable people are involved. Two men posed as high school students so they could take advantage of elderly people. They said they were doing a school project. Their "project" happened to involve stealing from seniors at an assisted living center...
