Brickbat: Valuable Lesson

|

Samantha Pawlucy, 16, says her geometry teacher ordered her out of the classroom when she saw the girl had worn a Romney-Ryan t-shirt to school on dress down day. Pawlucy said the teacher compared the t-shirt to a Ku Klux Klan shirt. The principal of that Philadelphia high school later read an apology from the teacher to students and said the teacher's remarks were meant to be "light and humorous." Pawlucy's parents say they are pulling all of their children out of the school.
