schools are really starting to have so many issues its not even funny.. I am all for home schooling but my GF is totally against it because she thinks her daughter wouldn't get the social skills and friends at school..
But its easy to make friends and maybe rather then going to school to hang out with your friends she would be better off learning at home and then doing chores which is what my idea of an education would be..
She wants a cell phone and I told her to walk around to all the neighbors houses and ask them to do chores and clean for $ if she can pay the bill she can have it.
As soon as she is 15 and she can start a legal job then she will be working after school to save for her first car.

Emphasis added.
A draft of the policy states that, “Works created by employees and/or students specifically for use by the Prince George’s County Public Schools or a specific school or department within PGCPS, are properties of the Board of Education even if created on the employee’s or student’s time and with use of their materials.”
seems to rightfully indicate that the proposed policy i...overbroad, full of loopholes, and does not properly address the concerns of those involved.
“The Board pulled the policy because it was overly broad.”
