Windham school officials ban dodgeball
i think they have nothing better to do so this makes them feel important

Dodgeball has been banned in Windham schools, due to concerns about violence and bullying.

The School Board voted, 4-1, last week to remove dodgeball and nine other “human target” activities from the district’s curriculum.

The vote was taken after a committee of physical education teachers studied the issue, then recommended eliminating the games.

“We spend a lot of time making sure our kids are violence free,” Windham superintendent Dr. Henry LaBranche said. “Here we have games where we use children as targets. That seems to be counter to what we are trying to accomplish with our anti-bullying campaign.”

Re: Windham school officials ban dodgeball
Just another step in the pussification of Americans.....dodgeball been banned in many school districts...but whatcha expect from a school system that suspends kids for pointing a finger and yelling bang! or biting a poptart into the dreaded gun shape....

Liberals hate dodgeball cuz it teaches teamwork, tactical thinking, and require a level of physicality to hurl the balls.....balls which frighten libs cuz they ain't got none....

<stepping off soapbox>
