A completely serious note to parents (Ahem!)

Parents: I was mortified to learn that the mass email I sent to all parent's the other night, due to horrible format incompatibilities' in the software, somehow omitted all the apostrophe's. I want to let everyone know how seriously I feel about this humble punctuation mark, and Id never willingly neglect them anywhere their needed. I, like all conscientious grammar hound's would never abuse apostrophe's in the making of plural's or, heaven forfend, misplace them inappropriately at the ends' of words'. Rest assured that Ill avoid all contractions in the future, and make sure that my students use of possessives is beyond reproach.

Apologetically your's,

B.Pohlmann
