SCHOOL ANSWERING MACHINE (This is hilarious - no wonder some people
were
offended!)
This is the message that the Pacific Palisades High School
(California)
staff voted unanimously to
record on their school Telephone answering machine
This is the actual answering machine message for the school.
This came about because they implemented a policy requiring students
and
parents to be responsible
for their children's absences and missing homework.
The school and teachers are being sued by parents who want their
children
s
failing grades changed
to passing grades - even though those children were absent 15-30
times
during the semester and
did not complete enough schoolwork to pass their classes.
The outgoing message:
"Hello! You have reached the automated answering service of your
school. In order to assist you in connecting to the right staff
member,

*To lie about why your child is absent - Press 1

*To complain about what we do - Press 3
*To swear at staff members - Press 4
*To ask why you didn't get information that was already enclosed in

*If you want to reach out and touch, slap or hit someone -Press 7
*To request another teacher, for the third time this year -Press 8

his/her own behavior, class work, homework and that it's not the
teachers'
fault for your
child's lack of effort: Hang up and have a nice day!
*If you want this in Spanish, you must be in the wrong country."
Have a great day and May God Bless You
