The sorry state of Education in a Republican Red State.

Cringe-inducing typo outside N.C. school

By Brett Michael Dykes Wed Aug 11,

Well, here's something to make your old English teacher gasp in horror: A road contractor hired to paint the word "school" on a freshly paved stretch of road near Southern Guilford High School in North Carolina rendered the traffic area in question a "shcool" zone.

Anyone else think this pic is a set-up?
I think this was deliberate and then quickly fixed.
Nice joke though.

I think the thing most people here neglect to realize is the district itself did not paint the sign.
It was painted by the lowest bidder.
