A stupid question......just vote.

We need your help!! Our Nurse at Alloway Creek entered into the "A Day in the Life of a School Nurse" Photo Contest put on by medical supply company, School Health. We need as many people as possible to vote everyday until June 16th. The site does not ask for any information to cast a vote. Your vote is allowed as long as a vote was not already cast from your IP address.

TO VOTE, copy and paste the following link: http://www.schoolhealth.com/photocontest. Scroll down and click on VOTE. The photo you want to vote for says "We are keeping our school "GERM FREE"....." The photo is pictured above. You can also vote via Facebook by searching School Health.

Please consider voting each day. The students of our School District will greatly benefit!

Cynic- re: /m3392 That editorial is as concise and to the point as any I've read. Also very true.

Way back when I was in school, by the way graduating from HS a few years before you, we were taught to always question, always challenge what we were told and read, especially from government and authority. Think critically of all told. Most of what's taught today about history and civics is propaganda, not fact.
It's quite illuminating that the ones in power now, mostly my age, preach that one should never question or challenge what they're told by government. Those same people have transformed the educational system into one that spits out those all too willing to do so. A couple generations worth now of those who don't or can't think critically.
Few things are more sinister than the Progressive view of people, the world and how they intend to achieve their goals.

The dumbing down of our children proceeds.....Common Core in effect in PA.

Eight problems with Common Core Standards"

Just re-read 3383 and would like to shed some light on a blurry description. A school district is not compensated by the state for the busing of students within a certain distance. It used to be 1 mile. The district, when I was involved, was approached a number of times about providing bus service in areas like Heritage Hill, Meadowview, etc. The problem was, and probably remains, that doing so creates several problems with regard to State regs. and funding. Not as easy or seemingly inexpensive as it seems.
State regs. often dictate that common sensical actions are impossible. Let alone "ethical" actions.
