Let are kids walk.

This picture in this story just makes me laugh, but it makes me feel bad too. I first heard about it on Memorial day but forgot to post about it (it actually made it on digg). Anyway, there’s been a big hub-bub in Texas about the TAKS tests, assessment tests that every student must take and pass to graduate, and weather or not we should have them. Well, a school in Ft. Worth decided not to let the students who failed the TAKS but passed grade wise (some with 3.5 GPAs) walk across the stage for graduation, they’d have to wait until they passed the test. Some schools let the kids walk, eventhough they technically didn’t pass, on the basis of they would pass the test later in the summer. This infuriated many students and their parents. So what do they do when graudation day comes, they protest. One of them was holding this sign

are kids

Let are kids walk. That cracks me up. Obviously the sign is backwards, so maybe they realized the mistake and wrote the correct statement on the front. But still. I feel bad because I’m no grammer expert and you could probably find alot of errors in this post, and folks make mistakes from time to time, but just the fact they are protesting about a test they can’t pass and the sign has improper grammer. You can’t write irony like that.
