The circular from Holy Cross School highlights that the administration frequently deals with issues like students using slang, showing offensive gestures, comparing sizes of body parts, and using abusive language.?
The school flags usage of terms such as "suwar ka bachha," "sala," and "thu bhikari," among others.
It expresses shock at the inappropriate language and conversations occurring on campus: "The Sisters and the staff are truly shocked to hear such slang language and filthy conversation in the school campus."
The school urged parents and guardians to advise their children to be more mindful of their language, further warning that if such behavior continues, it may lead to strict actions, such as deducting marks from exams.
Despite the harsh tone of the circular, which the Reddit poster sarcastically captioned as "My school has gone nuts," the majority of people have expressed support for the school's stance.
One commenter noted, "Totally understandable and warranted.. seems the administration is fed up."
Another shared that this behavior appears to be increasingly common, especially post-COVID: "School's not wrong! I see the current school going kids, I mean there's not much difference between me & them but things have gone downhill post COVID for sure. Met a few teachers & even they were saying the same. Parenting overall has been pretty crap, throw some money at your kids and that's it."
A third person added, "I agree with the teachers fully here. Stop swearing at school, you're in a learning environment. Even as an adult you're expected to behave yourself in professional environments."
