Teacher Apostrophe Abuse

Tara writes:

This note was posted in the workroom at my daughter’s school for the parent who was coming in to help out. It’s bad enough that the third grade teacher can’t use an apostrophe correctly, but you’d think she could at least get it right in her own name.

Some good citizen has taken a stand and halted the continued apostrophe abuse at the University of Pittsburgh. Apparently someone reached up to the sign and chiseled the apostrophe right off. Perhaps they were inspired by this blog?
