Teachers blame poor attendance and grades
A high school located in Texas has been forced to postpone its commencement after just 15 percent of the senior class reached the requirements to graduate.
In a letter sent to parents and families, Marlin ISD Superintendent Darryl Henson said most seniors did not make the cut due to low grades and attendance records.
District officials have postponed the ceremony to June in order to give students the time to catch up and hopefully check the boxes needed to obtain their diplomas.
'As a school district, we really want to make sure we're making the best decision in the interest of all children,' Henson told KCEN News.
The postponement of the major ceremony comes after the district had already announced a four-day school week aimed at increasing attendance.

Marlin is 42% Black. 26% Latino. School age would be higher minority.

Maybe if the SSA comes through, I'll have enough coming in to put the Squirt in some kind of private school next year. Sling Blade told me this is her last day of sitting in front of a computer screen learning about anal sex all day for the year.

All of the designers plus the owner and bookkeeper at the florist shop I did deliveries and set up Jewish weddings and Bar Mitzvah parties were all gay. And they all had trouble with hemorrhoids.
After I started working for Illinois State Highways in 1980, I was in The Brothers Tavern for a couple of beers after work. The late afternoon news came on. They had a human-interest story. This guy had found his long-lost brother. The guy that was the subject of the story was one of the designers from the gay florist.
I stood up on the rungs of the bar stool, pointed at the TV and shouted, "THAT GUY'S A FAGGOT!"
Everyone was asking, "How do you know?"
I replied, "I used to work with the guy. It was the same shop, but we had different jobs."

There's no reason to be teaching (indoctrinating) little children to the faggot/freak lifestyle. I'm standing back-to-back with my Godson and his little (12 y/o) girl between us, trying to protect her. THAT'S SOME FIRST- CLASS, SICK BULLSHIT.
