Polk school district to give iPods to some parents
POLK COUNTY (Bay News 9) — The Polk County school district is giving away iPods to some parents.
The school district is using the device to reward parents of children with disabilities who fill out a 10-minute online survey. The district wants to know how well it’s connecting with the parents and how to get parents involved in their children’s education.
The district is spending about $350,000 in federal stimulus money for the iPods.
The district has more than 10,000 students with disabilities.
*sigh* Too bad The Ø!’s parents are dead, otherwise, they could move to Tampa, fill out a survey and get iPods of their own… After all, The Ø! is mentally (ToTUS, anyone?) and morally disabled, isn’t he?
*feh*
“[F]ederal stimulus money” *mhwa* If it’s stimulation they’re after, why not give the parents some of this? It’d be both less costly and more honest.
