CA Schools Shorten Academic Calendar

Big deal..... the school year was cut by 5-7 days or something like that. The Bored Moms on Prozac Committee is up in arms about slashing education. The over-tenured teachers are pissed off about one week of not getting paid.

Really? Have any of you spent time in a classroom at the end of the year? Nothing goes on the last two weeks anyway. Teachers are showing movies in class. Text books have already been collected. All school assemblies (that last all DAY, mind you) are organized to present awards to just about every kid in the school for everything imaginable. Yes, little Johnny will receive a standing ovation for (yawn) breathing the entire semester. CLAP, CLAP, CHEER!!!!!!! Woo-HOOOOOOO! You GO little Johnny!

This self-esteem for kids shit that the Bored Moms on Prozac Committee dreamed up with the teachers' union president has gone waaaaaaaay too far. Sadly, your tax dollars are paying for this bullshit.

Now.... California needs to deal with its upper eschelon levels of total waste. We're only hitting the tip of the iceberg here, folks. The worst offenders of the public trough rip-off are those publically crying how holier-than-thou they are.

Police, firefighters, teachers, etc.... they're not as innocent as they portray themselves to be. Their M.O. is to go out on permanent early disability as soon as possible so they can go fishing whenever they please. For extra cash they will offer you a great deal to paint your house.

So true! Here you can be fined if you take your kids out of school for the last few days of any term, although they are doing ZERO work but just messing around!
