SCHOOL ANSWERING MACHINE
(This is hilarious - no wonder some people were offended!) This is the
message that the Pacific Palisades High School (California) staff voted
unanimously to record on their school telephone answering machine.
This is the actual answering machine message for the school.This came
about because they implemented a policy requiring students and parents
to be responsible for their children's absences and missing homework.
The school and ! teachers are being sued by parents who want their
children's failing grades changed to passing grades - even though those
children were absent 15-30 times during the semester and did not
complete enough schoolwork to pass their classes.
