Title: School Answering Machine
Post by: philw on October 11, 2009, 08:16:40 PM
This is the message that the Maroochydore High School, Queensland,

Australia, 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 school work to pass their classes.
