I wonder if the folks in our schools every have time to educate our kids??? It seems they are more interested in doing politically correct nonsense then teaching the kids how to read and write.
Boy, 6, Suspended For Reciting 'Sexy' Lyric by Associated Press Story Created: May 6, 2012 at 1:06 PM EDT AURORA, Colo. (AP) -- A 6-year-old boy was suspended from his suburban Denver school for three days after school officials said he told a girl "I'm sexy and I know it," a line from a popular song. D'Avonte Meadows, a first-grader at Sable Elementary School in Aurora, is accused of sexual harassment and disrupting other students, according to a letter the school district sent to his mother after he was sent home Wednesday. School officials issued a statement saying they couldn't discuss the case, but they pointed out a school board policy that defines sexual harassment as any unwelcome sexual advance. There is no age limit. The Aurora Police Department said it was not involved in the case because laws only cover children ages 10 and older. D'Avonte's mother, Stephanie Meadows, said her son doesn't know the meaning of sexual harassment and it's the second time he has gotten in trouble for quoting "Sexy and I Know It." The song by the duo LMFAO was at the top of Billboard's Hot 100 chart for two weeks in January. "I'm just, I'm floored," Stephanie Meadows said. "They're going to look at him like he's a pervert. And it's like, that's not fair to him." The Associated Press could not locate the Meadows family for comment. Aurora Public Schools issued a statement Thursday saying it is trying to provide an equal learning environment for all students. "We have policies and protocol in place to prevent any disruption to the learning environment. Due to privacy laws, we are unable to discuss appropriate disciplinary consequences about a specific student," wrote spokeswoman Paula Hans. Under Colorado's Senate Bill 46, the only cause for mandatory expulsion would be bringing a real firearm to school. |
