Halloween Parties banned by School
In today's paper (up here in the Pacific NW)

A Washington state school district has banned Halloween parties during the school day because it says children dressed up as goblins and witches take time away from learning, officials said on Thursday. "Our number one priority is protecting the instructional day," said Puyallup School District Superintendent Tony Apostle after the district canceled observance of the Oct. 31 celebration.

Anyone else find it interesting that the superintendent's name is Apostle? I guess wearing a costume ruins the educational experience huh????
