Reading all the doom and gloom thought I would share a little bout the school/kids I drive bus for.
At any given time I'd say 30% of the kids are wearing shirts with a crucifix and the words God, Jesus and Love on them. Don't seem to be the first complaint anywhere.
Had a 3rd grader with a shoe box full of bullets he and his dad found whilst relic hunting. Apparently having bullets at school ain't a reason to lock down the building.
Lots of sirs and misters flying around. Older kids look out for the younger kids. Little girls have no problems putting band aids on little boys that scrape their knees running to the bus.
Taught one of the older boys on the bus some of the controls of the bus, how to stop and how to use the emergency brake and radio, just in case I happen to drop dead while driving.
The kids continue to impress as does the school. It's only 45 or so kids but I'm liking how the future looks.
Most of the schools around here are like that, despite some stupidity from a few school employees that is immediately widely publicized from time to time. Most of the kids hunt and shoot too, at least the boys. Quite a few girls too. Many rodeo. Almost all have critters to take care of and lots belong to 4H.
