But I wouldn't be surprised if people weren't all that careful about that. Still, at least one of the kids chosen had never attended the school at all, so there must be some further explanation.Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07559356125770114400noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8285353362748898720.post-38553340477591625492011-11-10T18:19:14.475-06:002011-11-10T18:19:14.475-06:00Are you sure the entries are only good for one wee...Are you sure the entries are only good for one week or do the entries remain in play for the duration of the school year? At a PBIS school I am familiar with, the student's tickets (which are similar to the bracelets/entries) are put each week into one large bin that is kept throughout the year. This could explain how this happened.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8285353362748898720.post-89669902230387981252011-11-08T00:17:15.568-06:002011-11-08T00:17:15.568-06:00SCF -- I do wonder what the kids make of all this....SCF -- I do wonder what the kids make of all this.

Which means- there's a pretty high probability that other kids have given the bracelets, been misidentified as well- but as other kids who actually do currently attend. Good luck ever getting proof of that though.<br />Maybe the kids should demand a numbered receipt for every ticket purchased (with wampum)<br /><br />The charter school my boys previously attended has an annual fundraiser where they raffle off, and drew the tickets between class performances at the Christmas show, Christmas gift baskets, (most were pretty valuable, included Disneyland tickets- etc.) Anyhow, the first year they did it, it was pretty obvious there was a statistical anomaly to say the least, and documented (as many people were videoing the Xmas show) As fifteen winner's were drawn and announced- they kept rising from one small area of the performance hall- the front right row, (staff/directors seating.)Suburban Chicken Farmernoreply@blogger.com
