These kids should learn write from wrong.
Earlier this month, The Post exposed a scheme at Manhattan’s Murry Bergtraum HS for Business Careers in which failing students could get full credit without attending class, but instead watch video lessons and take tests online. One social-studies teacher had a roster of 475 students in all grades and subjects.
Red-faced administrators encouraged a student letter-writing campaign to attack The Post and defend its “blended learning” program. Eighteen kids e-mailed to argue that their alma mater got a bad rap"...

Did the "Red-faced administrators" encouraged these students to write all these letters on the same manual typewriter that had the same problems with key strikes and badly inked ribbon?

I'm not suggesting that there isn't problem with young people and their ability to communicate in the King's English (I deal with it almost every day), but something stinks about this article.

You're a hoot sometimes Rev - but only sometimes. Whodathunk that an old manual typewriter could be retrofitted to send emails, right? lol

Well you're never a hoot, or even slightly humorous, but I enjoy most of your posts. Even the ones I don't agree with.

Odd, not even one F-bomb... I have to wonder if New York public schools are also failing in their teaching of vocabulary to younger people.

They just don't know how to spell it!
