click on the "languages other than english" link to see how commie teachers
and administrators are fucking with children's futures. Unbelievable. Now
we're catering to immigrants by making kids learn foreign languages.

Worse: Look at the mission statement for the special ed department:

How convenient that they forgot to mention that if single welfare mothers
would kick their chemical dependencies, there wouldn't be so many fucked up
kids to begin with, and we wouldn't have to pay for these extra programs.
Where in the constitution does it say society has to provide special support
for retards and FAS kiddies?

Hello?? A minimum of French &/or Spanish weren't offered in HS when you
were a student? You, for reasons which escape me, just can't hack the idea
of Americans learning any languages other than English? Heaven forbid
anyone is bilingual! Trilingual? Oh, for shame! What about those lucky
enough to be fluent in 5 languages (I know two such lucky & talented
people)? Super-shame! How the hell do you equate knowing more than one's
own first language with being Communist?!?

You are certifiably *nuts* (IMO), not to mention lacking in compassion for
those whose brains don't function in the same way &/or as well as (IYO) your
own. Just for starters, you think everyone with low IQs had mothers on
drugs? Ever hear of oxygen deprivation at birth, for ex?

"&/or"???

I thought that "or" took care of the "and" part as well, making "and/
or" redundant.

Why has there been a rise in the use of "and/or" over the past few
years?

And one of those foreign languages is Latin. Why the hell do we still
have to accommodate ancient Romans anyway?

OTOH it's obvious that Esperanto and Klingon should be mandatory so
the US can remain competitive internationally and intergalactically.

Yeah, perhaps either French *or* Spanish was offfered, or maybe both French
*and* Spanish were offered.

I tried to take Latin in HS, but it wouldn't fit into my schedule -
conflicted w/ courses I definitely needed for the diploma I wanted. If one
knows Latin, then all of the Romance languages fall into place more easily.

That's what I thought, but Spanish is full of words derived from Arabic
languages, too. What a mess.

Surly you did not expect logic, de reto, to come from our friend Joe, did
you Cathy? One such as he would not disce quasi semper victurus vive quasi
cras moriturus. De gustibus non est disputandum. LOL
