Meet George Jetson

About Common Core, the teachers have not even taught my grandchildren to write in cursive? They want to put them on computers that we have here at home. So why do we need the teachers for? You can just hire a couple of robots to run the school and fire the teachers. A few of them are really mean and they need to be fired.

Taking a bite out of Apple

I see where they are buying 600 iPads for the junior high school. I thought Sikeston didn't have enough money to pass the bond issue. Where are they getting the money to buy 600 iPads, which are extremely expensive and cost twice as much as other brands of tablets? It appears that certain members of the school board have been brainwashed into thinking that iPads and Apple products are the best, which they are not. They are extremely overpriced. If the Sikeston school system does not have enough money, they shouldn't be buying Apple products. You can get a good product for half the price and save money. If the public didn't want the bond issue, then you shouldn't be spending money on Apple products.
