Why are you advertising the PUBLIC school system?

October 8, 2008

Is this the best use of tax dollars?  Seriously?  Nothing better to do with the money like, say, buy some textbooks?

Yes, it’s another silly sign from the Saskatoon Public School Division.

You, too, can have children who memorize inane facts and bake pastry.  Yippee.

Is this supposed to make parents with kids in the Catholic system switch to the Public system?

Has it worked?  I doubt it.  In fact, smart parents might think twice about switching to a system that wastes money on giant green signs.

    I find it offensive to see the ACTAL (academically talented) program illustrated by “the billionth decimal of Pi” statement juxaposed with the home ec program illustrated by the Homer Simpson “mmm pie” statement. So…people in the home ec program are like Homer? Say that to Martha frik’n Stewart. I dare ya. She makes more money doing Home ec that most nerdy ACTEL students ever will.

    So are we to infer instead that Martha Stewart is representative of people in the home ec program? I find it offensive that you are using nerdy as a term of abuse. I sure hope you’re not a parent!
