...bored of education?


Hi. As recently as 1954, people still had the color of a person's skin on their mind. Get an education! Or take this silliness to the Supreme Court! What, huh? They did? Good. On this day in 1954 the United States Supreme Court handed down a unanimous decision in Brown v. Board of Education of Topeka, Kansas. Now get studying and embrace color. Speaking of which, I finished the canopy for the prom yesterday and that room will be Jamaican slammin'. Huge palm trees, grass skirted bistro tables and a huge mural that should take the prom goers out of the cafeteria and into another world. Bright colors abound and the students mix of skin tones show us how it really is...and should be. These students study and work so hard while keeping up their grades, add extra curricular activities to their schedules, and some even work part time. Have a great prom everyone, and try not to piss off Carrie.
