NCLB Program Success

Back in November, I told you that the Shalampax school board implemented a No Child Left Behind program to combat the problem of parents leaving their children in school after hours, including overnight and, in some cases, over the weekend. The key element in the program is a fee that the school board now charges any parents who leave their children in the school when it’s closed.

I’m happy to report that the No Child Left Behind program has been a tremendous success. Before the school board implemented the program, some parents never thought to leave their children in school to keep them out of their parents’ hair. Now almost all parents do so frequently.

The fees charged to parents leaving their kids in the school when it’s closed have been flooding in. As a result, the school board has been able to increase the salaries it pays to its members tenfold. Congratulations, guys and gals!

    It is so heartwarmning to hear about a government program that is such a resounding success and serves the community so well…especially when it is all about the children.

    @David: Our school board so rarely achieves success in anything it does. Congratulations are definitely in order when it does.

    @MadMadMargo: You said “I’m rolling!” Who are you rolling? And is he or she sufficiently conscious to press charges against you for doing so?

    @MadMadMargo: Sorry, I misunderstood. You can probably blame my Shalampaxian brain for that.
