Don’t forget HOODIE!

Loser, Corruption, Fraud, Joke, Pathetic, Bought & Paid-For; are all words that shouldn’t be on the list because they suggest locally elected politicians.

Fire them all.
This is idiotic.
This is why budgets won’t stretch. Hundreds of salaries removing words like dinosaurs from school!!! Are you people NUTS! Every museum and university on the planet has dinosaur skeletons out the hoo-ha! They were REAL. They preceded us. We can PROVE it…unlike the bible.

The word “dinosaur” suggests evolution!! LOL!!! Dinosaurs lived on earth for 160 million years! Compared to the 2.5 million years man has been on earth. This is beyond stupid.

It’s Bad enough some school systems are coaching srudents before taking
“Standardized Tests” now they want to customize the test. Where did the
“Standard” part of the test go? I’m not a fan of the Standardized Test but if the state requires them at least keep the testing standard & not customized. Such foolishness! To everyone Have A Very Merry UnBirthday or is that too Politically Incorrect? Oh Well!

Education is suppose to prepare children for the real world. These words exist, have existed and will continue to exist. Will they remove Dinosaurs from the animal world next? Will children no longer be allowed to study dinosaurs? We are a diverse community. It is important that the children learn as much as they can about our world, each other, and other people. These educators need to stop being so narrow minded!

Can’t we teach acceptance and understanding of all different religions and social practices and without advocating one position over another? This censorship seems a little 1955 to me? How will our children know how to cope in the real world when someone has a different perspective?

Wow… considering there are about 1,000,000 words in the English language, this seems like a stupid precedent to make. Every single word in the language could be seen as offensive depending on time, place, person, situation and circumstances. I could have just gotten dumped and be upset and then the innocuous word ‘love’ is now offensive to me. These idiots should all be fired – yet they head our education system.

UGH! Give me a break! I wish the government would stop trying to tell everyone we’re the same. We’re NOT! We’re ALL DIFFERENT! The more kids are sheltered from things from other cultures, the more ignorant they will become of those other cultures, and when those kids are all grown up, subtle propaganda will create negative connotations with these other cultures. The kids won’t know that what they’re being told is complete bullshit, so they’ll go along with it, and BOOM! Another World War. Lots of lovely profit for the Federal Reserve families.

Fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, hate leads to the Dark Side. What comes before Fear? Ignorance.

The word Halloween upsets me because I didn’t get enough candy as a child……

ROFLMBO!!! This country gets funnier and funnier by the minute! First it is a ban on hugging, now words like lke dinosaur and Halloween! The USA is imploding, bit by bit, every second. We may not even make it to November 6th. LOLOL.

The word Dinosaur does not suggest evolution. That’s like saying the word Mammals suggest evolution or the words Avian, Aquatic invertebrates, or cell membrane. Give me a minute and I’ll have another 50 words you can add to that list.

Ridiculous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are Walcott and Idiot two of the banned words?

These incompetent fools are teaching our kids. But the parents don’t care enough to make a stand.

Is Idiot one of the banned words?

The idiocy of this offends me

DUH!!!!!

If it offends some people then they should remove it.

This is really sad. The more we try to “shelter” kids from every little thing that could possibly be upsetting or controversial, the less prepared for the real world they’ll be. I have happy childhood memories of learning about dinosaurs and collecting Halloween candy. I feel sorry for kids growing up in our brave new sanitized world.

This is a dumb decision by politician/bureaucrats afraid of their own shadows. Disgraceful.

Walcott needs to add one word to his job….”resign”…. obviously an overpaid school positon with way too much time on his hands. Four words come to mind when I listen to people like him….”get a life pal!”

oh my word!! (no pun intended)..children eventually have to grow up and cannot live in a total bubble of protection all their lives..this is the most ridiculous thing i have heard in a while..whats next,, burning books because they are historically correct? why not educate (which is what these people are supposed to be doing)children on life,diversitty,history,and tradtions or days such as halloween ,or more importantly, where and why these things originated..i guess none of these so called “educators” have visited a museum with intact dinosaur bones either….

What do I think? Give me a f*cking BREAK!! It’s a WORD!!! Who care what it’s “connotation” is…we’re just trying to see if the student can identify it!

Sheesh! And I thought the cast of “Jersey Shore” were stupid…they obviously benefited frmo an NYC education!
