Looks like someone's getting detention!
A road contractor in North Carolina was recently hired to paint the word "school" near a high school traffic zone but made the ultimate typo after misspelling the word across a freshly paved stretch of road.
The traffic area in question read "shcool" as a result.
The contractor, who works for a company called Traffic Markings, has already corrected the misspelling, the local Fox affiliate reports.

According to the station, this isn't the first mishap on record. In 2009, a Miami-area road crew also misspelled the word "school" and in 2007, the same thing happened in Kalamazoo, Michigan.

Reminds me of that Snickers commercial, where the guy needed to paint in the end zone "Chiefs" and he painted "Chefs"......That's great but who are the Chefs? LOL! CLASSIC Commercial!!!

LOL, must be a Southern Red State. Where they refuse to spend money on education but promote war spending. Oh yeah, and support Kate Gosselin.

Well looks like the road worker who painted this may have skipped a few classes in his day...

A sad commentary on education in this country. Not even a complicated word to spell. Americans used to be the most educated in the world. These days Japan outranks us by a significant amount. What a worry for all of us!

That is the funniest post you have ever posted Gabby. At least you can acknowledge that you do not know how to spell. Let me know where you went to school, so we can inform the public.
