My last comment wasn't posted so I'll keep this brief. I'm not in denial; I have said repeatedly that things are not perfect in WCPS. But these sweeping generalizations that the whole school system stinks are unfair and untrue. Snappy--I didn't say a good sports program makes a good school. I said there are lots of good things going on in our schools, and gave a couple of examples. I think it's "fair" to say that kids who can not only read, but interpret and act out a Shakespeare play can definitely "read and write." And by the way, schools...
PLG62...you are missing the point. The article was about Mrs. Funk and RJES. This school is below state and national standards. The school board should be focusing on education not extra curricular activites. There are some good teachers at RJES that really care about what they are doing...and there are many really bad teachers. With the exception of a few, most of the teaching assistants are under-educated and completely unqualified for their positions. The school is filthy and there are broken windows and old and outdated equipment. Do you REALLY think this is a productive environment that fosters learning?...
Read the VGIF Hunting Regulation Handbook under unlawful methods first line states:Penalties may include hunting or trapping privilege revocation for one year to life and forfeiture of firearms. Not sure you read english or not but looks like gun suspension to me. Now blowhard get your facts straight before you run off about something you apparently know nothing about....
"forfeiture of firearms" means they take the gun you were using at the time of the violation and don't give it back. In certain circumstances they may take more than just the one you had on you, but it doesn't prevent you from keeping or purchasing more. You could go out and buy one the next day perfectly legally. As was stated previously, no VDGIF game laws carry a "life suspension of owning or possessing a firearm"....
No actually, I'm on point, you're the one who is off base. RJES is fully accredited by the state of Virginia. They won't allow me post links so you'd just have to go to the WCPS website to find the school report card. It is not a perfect school, but they are accredited, based on SOL scores. Yes, there are now AMOs to contend with, that's how the politicians do it. They create standards, the school systems spend tons of resources learning how to jump through hoops, and then they(politicians) create newer (tougher) standards. By the way, teaching assistants are...
