Happy New Year....I hope everyone had an enjoyable Christmas. I am writing this morning to ask for your assistance with the following:
a. TV time....Please try and make sure you monitor the programs your children are watching on television. I know this is 2010, and times change, but I am amazed at some of the language and the sexual content of some prime time shows. When I speak with our students regarding shows such as: South Park, Family Guy, Jersey Shores, MTV, quite often I'm told they watch them on a regular basis. Even though our STL adolescents think they they are adults, they are not. They are impressionable young teenagers and should not be exposed to such content. I fear words and phrases that were strictly taboo a short time ago, are becoming perceived as acceptable because our children are becoming desensitized. God help us! While I'm on the subject (standing on this soap box) I have been told that now there is an adult "You Tube" site. So you might want to check your computer settings as well.
b. On a much lesser note, we are experiencing problems once again with the one way time limits on Lawler Avenue. The Oak Lawn Police have been notified and will be monitoring the area issuing citations to violators. Remember, from 7:30-8:30 and 2:30-3:00 Lawler is one way south.
Thank You for choosing Saint Linus School.
