They keep moving their little angel around from school to school, always blaming those at the last school for his failures instead of blaming him and let's face it school administrators have to plan how many students they're going to have, how many teachers they're going to need and if students are bouncing around like ping pong balls in a lottery barrel thingy how can they know what to expect? Oh and did I mention that most of the superintendents I've known over the years weren't all that bright to begin with? Sure there are exceptions but that mandatory lobotomy they have to get so that they believe every BS story parents hit them with so that they overrule any real punishment little Johnny ever actually gets causes them to not be very good at math anymore.
