Went to the see the principal today. (Gee, I haven't had to say that in a long time
) One look at him and I knew I wouldn't have to get hostile. Johnny Milktoast would be the best term I guess. He said he couldn't get into the specifics due to privacy issues. I said "That's fine, let me give you a few specifics. When Tiff is a junior, I'm taking her to Canada to hunt bear just like my Dad did with me. I AM NOT adding an extra grand onto the cost of the trip just because some overpaid money hungry bureacrat has his hand out. That hand is liable to get chopped off." I also went into the fact that I know there are anti-hunters out there but none of them would be stupid enough to try and force their beliefs on me or my family, even if it is a school district. I let him know that we are going to fight it and that I consider this just a misunderstanding. I finished with "I glad that we understand each so I don't have to come back here again".
It seems that my sister filled out the request slip, but it was denied. Eastern will be changing their requirements next year, I can promise that.
