Yoga in School

Son #2 came home from school a couple of weeks ago and announced, "We watched Jimmy Neutron in gym class today."

When asked, "Why?," he continued, ""Well, we were supposed to do yoga but the DVD player was broken."

Okay . . .

1) Our kids do yoga to a DVD?

2) In light of the electronics malfunction, wasn't there another form of exercise available? Maybe jumping jacks? Squat thrusts?

It's this attention to detail that makes our school district in the top 20 of public schools in the state. Other districts are probably still making their kids do calisthenics to Jack LaLanne beta tapes.

Your tax dollars hard at work.

So I take it Jimmy Neutron was NOT in DVD format?

Good question! I thought it was on Nick but that would mean the school had cable. Maybe on the VCR? Not sure I want to probe any deeper on the subject.
