Middle School Cancels Honors Night Because It’s Too “Exclusive”…

Participation trophies for all!

Via East Greenwich Patch:

    Citing concerns about the “exclusive nature” of the annual honors night at Archie R. Cole Middle School, school officials have decided to scrap the tradition.

    Instead, students who would normally be recognized at the annual spring tradition will be honored during team-based recognition ceremonies and graduation.

    The notice was sent to parents over the weekend in an e-mail signed by School Principal Alexis Meyer and Assistant Principal Dan Seger.

    “Members of the school community have long expressed concerns related to the exclusive nature of Honors Night,” the email stated.

    By having the recognition ceremonies during team-based ceremonies, it will “afford us the opportunity to celebrate the individual and collective success of all students and their effort, progress and excellence.”

So I guess it is OK not to recognize someone that is not on a team or other activity.  Isn't that excluding that non-participant?  /

If these libtarded trophies do not resemble the figure in this pic...



...then they are not being very honest!

But they cannot be honest, so screw 'em all anyway...   ::vafancoul::
