  • Required footwear is limited to moccasins tanned from roadkill rabbits or hemp sandals

  • Any Twinkies found in a lunch bag will be confiscated and replaced with raisins and a stern organic lecture




  • Parents are required to sign waiver indemnifying academy against trauma suffered by children who suffer nightmares due to exposure to excessively natural and hirsute legs of female staff

And you know what people? She's not kidding. It's right there by Neil Frisby's House of Healing at the Capstone Cathedral. What a weird world.

Hilarious!
Love the Al Gore costume requirement. Indoctrinate the children early and global warming will for sure be a thing in the history books by the time these children are old enough to vote.

This is too funny, Larainy! I bet it costs way more than a regular school too? Love the hairy legs and hemp/peat moss diapers ... can't they buy cotton ones?

Thanks for making me laugh always.

you made me giggle :)

Truth IS stranger than fiction. So weird. I'm glad I did not teach at an organic school. I don't think Diet Coke is organic and I'm sure I couldn't weave moccasins and make frond fans. That sounds HARD!! I think some people are nuts. Oops! I'll bet they can't serve peanuts--allergies. The sunset is pretty this evening. Hope the organic school gets off to a environmentally friendly start. Little tree huggers--

Hahaha... little tree huggers. That made me laugh. Don't forget the soy milk.

I'd have terrible backlash every week and be eating chocolate bars, driving a land boat and buying disposable diapers by the big box.

Dang, I thought my regular donkey was good enough.

"Preach it, sista!" lol-;D

I moved from AZ (Gilbert), 5yrs ago...and can't imagine driving by a school like that without my mouth falling open...ALTHOUGH, quite a friendlier entrance and environment than the school I taught at in downtown Phoenix...not sure that's to say much :(

Talk about jumping on the green bandwagon! And stealing Twinkies? Holy cow. Here in the Deep South that would never fly. Southerners will never give up their deep fried pickles or deep fried Twinkies (not kidding). There's a reason it's known as the "Deep" South! Poor Phoenix. So darn healthy!

They are, or were organic - now they're grown. Yes, composed of carbohyrates, proteins, lipids, etc - all organic.

The hirsute legs were the deal breaker for me.

I saw a lady with hairy legs the other day. It was a little weird.
