Dear Editor,
The result slips for the Grade 6 Exams was July 22 for parents to register children. Almost 200 parents turned up at Skeldon High School and not even one teacher came to do the registration. They didn’t even have the manners to put the notice on television or something. People don’t have time to waste.
The next thing too is this blood test business. How come parents have to do children blood test and bring the result and $5000 before they register the children? There is a school official who is the wife of a doctor who said all the children have to get blood test and we have to pay $5000 when they are ready to do registration. Is every year they do blood test but this price is too hot now. Not everybody can line up at Skeldon Hospital for blood test. Some people went to private doctors. Come on, man. Where can poor people find that kind of money?
