Apparently, the days of drawing devil horns and mustaches on the people you don’t like in your school yearbook are over.
Little 7-year-old Natalie Ledger was suspended from school for one day for “disruption” when she scratched out the photograph of a classmate whom she says bullied her. Natalie also wrote in her yearbook that the classmate was rude, according to the Appeal-Democrat.
The student whose photograph was scratched out of the yearbook was also suspended from school.
Nancy Aaberg, superintendent of the Yuba City Unified School District, told the Appeal-Democrat that the district does not condone bullying “at any level."

But, then again, I scribbled out damn near the entire grade when I was in school (yes, they all bullied me).
Black lunchboxes, pb and j of course cause if you have ravioli someone's feelings might get hurt.
I quit buying "yearbooks" for my kids, they raised the cost to over $30 for a book that is extremely thin and they are in elementary school, I also don't buy from fundraisers or school picture packets, especially when I found out that the percentage of money that actually goes to the school is a very low margin, in some cases only %10.
I actually just donate money and supplies needed by the school directly to them, the teachers and admins have told me that it is a burden to spend time they should be teaching working as sales reps for these unscrupulous companies, I mean really who charges $20 for a candle you can get at a Dollar Tree for $1, gives the school $2 and then pockets $18 for themselves and they make you wait 4-6 weeks to get the item??? Maybe they order them in bulk from China for less than a dollar each.
It's her yearbook!
BTW, i just got my high school yearbook today!
I'm so mad that I wasn't involved in it so much!
Oh well, ther's always next year!
:D
BELIEVE***
btw I live near the yuba district, they (and my current district) are really anal-retentive at the elementary and middle school levels. it's really bad.
if you dont like someone youll do that
it is her yearbook
she should do anything she wants to it
that is why people buy the books
to write things and remember things
