I don't know if this is/was on a school telephone service or not, but is should be! Teachers, you're gonna love it. Jackie
~~*SCHOOL ANSWERING MACHINE*~~
(This is hilarious - no wonder some people were offended!)
This is the message that the Pacific Palisades
High (School ( California ) staff voted unanimously
to record on their school telephone answering
machine. This is the actual answering machine
message for the school. This came about because they
implemented a policy requiring students and parents
to be responsible for their children's absences and
missing homework. The school and teachers are being
sued by parents who want their children's failing
grades changed to passing grades - even though those
children were absent 15-30 times during the semester
and did not complete enough schoolwork to pass their
classes.
The outgoing message:
"Hello! You have reached the automated answering
service of your school. In order to assist you in
connecting to the right staff member, please listen
to all the options before making a selection:
* To lie about why your child is absent - Press 1
* To make excuses for why your child did not do his work- Press 2
* To complain about what we do - Press 3
* To swear at staff members - Press 4
* To ask why you didn't get information that was already enclosed in your newsletter and several flyers mailed to you - Press 5
* If you want us to raise your child - Press 6
* If you want to reach out and touch, slap or hit someone -Press 7
* To request another teacher, for the third time this year -Press 8
* To complain about bus transportation - Press 9
* To complain about school lunches - Press 0
If you realize this is the real world and your child must be accountable and responsible for his/her own behavior, class work, homework and that it's not the teachers' fault for your child's lack of effort: Hang up and have a nice day!
If you want this in Spanish, you must be in the
wrong country.
