(58,785 posts)If she's blind, she's going to be stumbling over her morally deaf, dumb and blind companion. "teaching children the values of empathy and communication that are at the core of kindness, mindfulness, integrity, and leadership."
Well, the sixth-graders and their teachers will handle it, and then the teachers at least can go home settle in with a good drink.
All of these are meant to be very useful in helping schools and parents understand and fill in with concrete examples the way the law is meant to work when its being implemented in various situations, said Jones."

In other words, they didn't convey rights, only assisted local districts in understanding how to apply and protect them. Had to go!
DeVos is completely shameless.

(11,686 posts)I would never allow them to be in an area without me there to explain what is "really" being said as I would not trust the teachers to give a proper explanation. I also would not want to be there and be around any of those monsters. The note will say family emergency but the beach or something fun would be the actual truth. I would never knowingly expose my children to hate.

(23,362 posts)Bloomfield Hills is geographically close to Detroit, but other than that, there's no similarity.
Bloomfield Hills is home to many more people who will benefit from Trump's tax plan: They're more likely to be affected by the soon-to-be-gone Alternative Minimum Tax and the soon-to-be-gone Estate Tax.

(7,813 posts)The article is flat-out lying. The headline and first paragraph both say "Detroit," and it says West Bloomfield in paragraph 4. Like you said, there is a difference - a hell of a difference.
According to Wikipedia:
As for Detroit, from mlive:
That number dropped each year since 2007, when it was $30,412.
The nationwide median household income was more than twice Detroit's, at $50,502.
Melania and her pal Betsy would rather eat a bug than visit a school in Detroit.
