When I was a kid, I remember thinking that my teachers were the smartest people in the world. Hell, they knew everything! Every subject. Didn’t matter, they knew it.
Wow how times have changed. More and more you are hearing stories like this one that comes from a school in Staten Island, New York. Apparently the Dean of the school was pissed off because the kids were having a food fight. He sat himself down at the word processor and wrote up a letter that went out to all the parents. Unfortunately, he never hit the spell check button and paid no attention to the highlighting in Word that tells you your grammar is shitty.
The New York Daily News reports:
This behavior, he wrote, was “unexcecpable,” and all eighth-graders in IS 51’s health academy could lose out on senior “activates” like the prom and class trip.
In addition to at least 16 spelling or grammatical mistakes, the letter - first reported in the Staten Island Advance - was never approved by Principal Emma Della Rocca.
“I would never have anticipated that … Mr. Levy would actually write something that would have not been readable,” Della Rocca said.
Yikes!
