Everyone who's ever gone to school should know how to spell "school."
But someone who plastered a school crossing sign on the street in front of a New York City high school got it wrong.
The New York Post reports ( http://nyp.st/zzfXDj) that the big white letters in front of Marta Valle High School on the Lower East Side say "SHCOOL X-NG."

“Good enough for government work” seems the operative phrase here.

I have seen winning Martin Luther King Day essays with terrible misspellings.
Hard to be surprised here.

‘But at least one city worker told the paper the blame lies not with the utility company or the city, but with the school.
“Regardless of who painted it, someone from the school should have been outside supervising, or noticed it by now,” the city worker, who asked to remain anonymous, told the Post. “This is sloppy work.”’
Since when did it become the schools responsibility to supervise the installation???
