This is an proper way for School Boards to respond to the deterioration
of society and to involve parents in the education of their children.

The Committee reviewing the dictionary is going to make a list of questionable words and email it to all parents.
That way the parents can go over the list with their children to see which words are offensive to their family values.

Words that offend will be highlighted with yellow markers, and the students will bring the lists to back to school.
Each teacher will make a new list of the highlighted words from their own class so they will know which words to avoid.
The teachers will post these lists of offensive words on their classroom bulletin boards.

A glass jar with a metal lid will be placed on the teacher's desk.
Each time someone uses one of these offensive words they must put a quarter in the jar.

When enough quarters have been collected, the classroom computers will be connected to the internet
so students can access dictionaries on-line, and the paper dictionaries in the school library will be burned.

These procedures have worked well in the past...

The Reviewing Committee will then turn it's attention to the school's books on Art and Photography.
