a little (http://www.cnn.com/2005/EDUCATION/09/27/rita.georgia.schools.ap/index.html)?

Not sure if I should just be amazed or jealous.

Every now and then the world needs an act of idiocy, so that we can show our kids what not to do.

Just another public service . . .

What an idiot!

Lilith,

One governor waits too long to take action, another begins too soon. You’d think they’d have better assessment teams.

:(

I applaud the proactive approach to a potential problem...but it sounds like it could've been planned and executed a little better. What else is new? :rolleyes2

Democrats, including state party Chairman Bobby Kahn, criticized the move.

"The first thing he decided to do was close schools," Kahn said. "That shows something about his views on education and his priorities."

even though i am not really sided with the Dems or the GOPs, I have to agree with what that ^^^ guy said. as a wanna be Biology teacher, i am a bit upset that the schools were targeted first. should have been something like all the state politicians work from home day, or 2 without pay for the politicians.........but i doubt we will see that anytime soon.....imho
