Mike,

>Well, that was my opinion about my own school, a relatively well behaved small school with about 1000 students. I've been to extremely large ghetto area schools too, and would say that swearing is the least of the problems in those schools. Just my opinion based on my experience.

Exactly. My recent experience is with the public schools my kids have attended in the past 10 years. In none of them would profanity, vulgarity or use of expletives be allowed or simply overlooked.
