Note to school districts: If you are going to produce a field-side banner aiming at increasing sponsorship via the sales of other similar banners, make sure that your own product is spell checked before it goes to the printers, and after it comes out.
In particular, avoid the mistake made by the Red Lion Area School District -- a school district in Pennsylvania -- in the banner above, as first noted by Deadspin and originally posted to Twitter by Ryan Petzar. Go ahead and read the text on that sign twice. The spelling mistake is as embarrassing as it is innocuous.
Clearly, Red Lion officials were advocating that they were a purveyor of public education, not "pubic education." That was confirmed by Don Dimoff, the marketing and communications manager for the Red Lion School District in a conversation with Prep Rally on Thursday.

At least this school is open about - so parents can finally find out what’s going on (or at least the idiot parents that thought schools were just for education...LOL).
Here in Texas the districts are moving to big-time sex-ed, but doing so quietly.
For morans and fiends.
LOLOLOL.
I like the OUTBACK too.
Q: Did alert reader Johnny G. Stewart send you an amusing automotive review from the Lewiston, Idaho, Morning Tribune?
A: Yes. It states: “A short-throw six-speed Borg-Warner transmission means classic Pontiac excitement and the fun of a well-timed shift.”
Q: What’s so amusing about that?
A: There was a letter missing from “shift.”
Assuming this was really a true event, I'd bet there were lots of newspapers with coffee sprayed all over them that morning in Lewiston, Idaho.
Who needs to travel to China for Engrish?!
Psychic fail : )
Having worked in a Public Works Dept. for a decade, I can tell you this is not unusual. Of course, spell check isn’t gonna help a bit in this situation.
Heh, heh. They need to use they grammar mo’ bettah.
