Now that DU is 5 years old, what should we do about schooling?
Public school? Voucher out for the experimental charter school? Home school? Parochial School?
Please share your thoughts.
:silly:

There seems to be a lot of loose shit flying around here sometimes. :)

teachers leave them kids alone

6. Homeschooling.
:hide:

(Please, no flame war. I'm only joking, and intend to make no statement for or against homeschooling.)

Edited on Fri Jan-20-06 10:58 PM by Gormy Cuss
'60s with the Archies?
Plain workman's metal lunch pail?

And then there's the selection of the Thermos...

14. You choose. Food is of course optional.
As Ron Reagun taught us, the poor are poor because they're too lazy to get a job and the homeless choose to be homeless. Lazy 5yr olds need to get a job, and choose a house.

16. Whatever we do
we must make sure that DU is fully indoctrinated with the Liberal agenda.
There's got to be this bitter hatred for America instilled deep within its psyche.
Advancing the Gay Agenda with recruiting more into the homosexual ranks is mandatory along with the destruction of the institution of marriage. Hatred of Christians and the Bible must be taught.
