Last year they did chocolates, and it didn't generate anything.
Susie Shepherd, principal of a Goldsboro middle school on Nov. 10, 2009, in explaining why her school's parent advisory council decided to offer bonus points on tests for cash contributions to the school.
Kudos to these kids. They have obviously been reading the News & Observer about all the covert activites happening in state government. "I don't remember" seems the mantra of all those involved in the investigation. So a few extra points might be in order since some kids can't remember test information.
These kids are only putting into practice what they see the adults doing. No harm there. What is good for the goose should be good for the gander. These kids deserve an "A" in civics.
These children are the future of North Carolina politics. How enterprising these youngsters are! They will go far in North Carolina politics. Selling grades is a new twist in "pay to play." I'm sure the politicians are already trying to recruit these youngsters. It is important to teach 'em young.

See you on Nancy Grace.
