Are you fucking kidding me?

It's stories like this that make you wish you never opened the morning paper.

For years, I've publicly lamented the fact that schools accept payoffs from students seeking better grades. Now this story proves schools aren't even trying to hide it anymore.

Rosewood Middle School in Goldsboro, North Carolina, announced this week that it's selling grades to raise money.

I shit you not.

Students who donate $20 would be able to buy a better grade.

A parent council concocted this absurd idea, and the principal supported it.

Man, doesn't this just bust one of the most covered-up stories in modern American history wide open?

Thankfully, the school board has just issued a statement halting this "fundraiser."
