DAILY DUMBASS (TACOMA EDITION)
Jesse Michener is upset with Point Defiance Elementary School in Tacoma, Washington . . . because they let t
wo of her daughters get severely sunburned.
The school had a field day on Tuesday. Students spent most of the day outside, but school policy prevented the kids from getting any protection from the SUN.
Teachers aren’t allowed to put sunscreen on students, and students aren’t allowed to put it on themselves . . . unless they have a NOTE from their DOCTOR. Parents are supposed to put sunscreen on the kids before sending them to school.
The thing is, one of the girls already HAD a note from the doctor. It didn’t give her permission to use sunscreen, but it documented the fact that she had a type of albinism.
The girls ended up getting burned so badly on their faces and arms that they had to go to the hospital that night and miss school the next day.
