High school takes back yearbooks with 'Build that wall,' other "inappropriate" quotes.... PATHETIC.

Richmond County Schools
 

Earlier this week, it was discovered by school administration that Richmond Early College yearbooks had errors and inappropriate comments.

The principal immediately collected the distributed yearbooks.

We regret that this incident has occurred and are currently working with the yearbook’s publisher to make corrections.


All of the yearbooks that had been distributed at the Richmond Early College High School near Rockingham have been taken back by the school after some senior quotes were deemed controversial, the school system says.

Graduating students at the 10-year-old school, which has 259 students, were allowed to share a quote under their picture in the yearbook. After the book was published, officials in the school and district administration found several of the quotes inappropriate, including one credited to President Trump, said district spokeswoman Ashley-Michelle Thublin.

The Trump quote, which said “Build that wall,” has been slammed on social media by some students and others who called it racist and hurtful to classmates, some of whom are minorities. After RECHS announced on its Facebook page that it had discovered the errors and the inappropriate comments, many people voiced their opinions both for and against the decision to cancel the book.

 

Only 22 yearbooks had been pre-ordered, and only a handful had been distributed before the quotes were discovered by Principal Tonya Waddell, Thublin said. Those were taken back the same morning, and the rest were not distributed, she said.

None of the students were disciplined for the quotes, Thublin said. The school and district administration felt several of the quotes submitted by students were inappropriate, Thublin said.

Specific examples were not provided. http://www.charlotteobserver.com/news/nation-world/national/article...

OMG!!!   These bleeding hearts need to pull their own high school yearbooks out of the closet, blow the dust off them and read the comments.  If benign comments like "Build that wall" cause issues and hurt feelings imagine the people that would stroke out reading what used to be wrote in these things.
