Future Freshman Nite

all i can say is WHOAAAAA Nelly, slow down.
its been a long time since i have set foot on a HS Campus.
not much has changed. (lol) or so i thought. we went to
an "assembly" before meeting the club and sports and etc.
i thought the assembly was nice, they had, ROTC, jazz band,
choir, the deans spoke, and the dance ensemble performed.
OH MY GOSH!!!
i was soooo embarrassed....... they had girls and guys "dancing".
i think they were doing "hip hop", not really sure what to call it.
some of the moves were great, the costumes were fairly decent
( they even had on silver converse shoes ) BUT, i thought i was gonna die
when the song got nasty and so did the dance.
now, i dont think i am a prude, and i LOVE to dance
(granted i would rather 2 step, but i still like to shake my groove thing)
it was beyond 'Dirty Dancing'. and it was on stage!!!
i guess i am officially OLD, not only did i NOT like the music, but i was offended!!!
i dont watch MTV, so i know i am behind the times, but please
tell my WHY its acceptable
at the HIGH SCHOOL to be so risque?!?!?!?!!
PLEASE TELL ME!

Welcome to the high school reality show! Quite a shock, I know. We now have two out of three high school students in online school.Our freshman is serving his time in school this year. My personal feeling on the issue that has worked so far for us (and may not hereafter) is that our future freshman make it through that first year. After having several children go through high school, we've noticed that it has degenerated tremendously (long story for us).
Good luck with enjoying the rest of this year, and extra good luck with next year. We're right there with ya!

I think you can pretty much get away with anything in todays public schools. Heck now you know why they are handing out condoms in the halls...its because the school assemblies are pervy lol

Maybe the school board needs someone like you, who is appalled and disgusted, to figure out a way to make a change.
