No it wasn't funny but why is this making news? What bothers me is that in a military town, children of military families are expected to attend school (YISD) on Veteran's Day instead celebrating the day as it was intended. Many will go to the parades held to celebrate our troops and veterans, and if they skip school, will they be unexcused? EPISD has the day off so why are YISD students expected to go to school?
