I think it's kind of weird they didn't tell parents. You should have the choice if it's someone you want your kids around or not!!

I can't wait for you to relay Emma's report when she gets home!

Re: Red Ribbon Week
I had to go pick Emma up from school.
The kids were out on the newly mowed field, we've had mild Santa Anas and her allegies became unbearable. Her eyes were all red and swollen and she has a headache.
Emma is in bed sleeping now. She really wanted Zap to sleep in her bed, but he decided that he would rather sleep in "the forbidden place."
By the way, there are more security people outside the school. They aren't in suits, but their clothing is fancier.

You mean we're going to have to wait until Emma finds out from her friends who the VIP was?

Re: Red Ribbon Week
I am sure that she will get a text from her friends when school ends.
I get back from my meeting at 5:00, so I will probably know by then.
I am pretty sure that it's Arnold.

Re: Red Ribbon Week
When Emma left, I asked the secretary to send a message to Emma's friend letting her know that Emma couldn't talk home with her today. Since the classes were on the field, she suggested that it might be better to have Emma send her friend a text message.MarleysGh0st wrote:From their forbidden cell phones?PlacentiaSoccerMom wrote:I am sure that she will get a text from her friends when school ends.

Been following this with great interest.
Can't wait to see who it is.
Arnold would make sense, though.
The thing with the lockers is extremely odd, though.

Yeah, well Emma finds it ironic that Arnold would talk about drug abuse given his past abuse of steroids.Ahnuld Schwartzwhatever wrote:I vuld luff to shpeak to your dotter's schoolmates, but doo to Californeeah's budget problems, I cahn't. What you und yur dotter saw were CGI.

That's why Emma got sent home. TPTB know that she can be a troublemaker when confronting authority figures!

Emma wasn't impressed by the person, but the men at the District boundary meeting were.

From what I heard at the district, they expected people to "swamp the school" if they found out that Shaq was there.
