Parents, y'all need to know this!

Here are some online acronyms parents really need to learn. this is how kids get away with talking about things they know you don't like. Examples are PAW, or parents are watching; LMIRL, or let's meet in real life; and ADR/addy, or address.

And here I thought LMFAO was risque'. I guess that was an EBKAC on my part.

Band funding

Here's the official buzz on the school funding I mentioned once before.

GREENVILLE, S.C. -- The Greenville County School Board on Monday approved a $430 million budget for next year.

Trustees voted for the plan that includes additional teachers and school employees to accommodate 1,500 new students and provides raises for existing teachers and staff.

School officials pointed to the fact that the budget does not include a tax increase to make ends meet.

A new state funding system replaces property tax money with funds from an increased state sales tax to pay for school operations.

In addition to new teachers and staff, the budget also includes additional funding for high school bands, district-wide technology upgrades and global positioning systems for school buses.
