Can you spell 'education?' This school can't ...

WESTLAKE, Ohio (AP) -- A Cleveland-area principal says he's embarrassed his students got proof of their "educaiton" on their high school diplomas.
Westlake High School officials misspelled "education" on the diplomas distributed last weekend. It's been the subject of mockery on local radio.
Principal Timothy Freeman says he sent back the diplomas once to correct another error. When the diplomas came back, no one bothered to check things they thought were right the first time.
The publisher has reprinted the diplomas a second time and sent them to the 330 graduates.

That's ok. I went to the top HS in NYC (some say the US) and my diploma says "mathemetics"
The sad part? Our graduating class didn't even notice it. The NEXT class made a big stink about it. LOL

My LI High school was declared a U. S. School of Excellence in 1992.
All the graudating seniors were given a medallion to wear on graduation.
It said:
A Nationally Recognized School of Excelance!
Adminsitrators wanted seniors to return them so they could be replaced and re-used in subsequent years. needless to say, they all kept them!
