wow. so they are trying to front load the school system with students that don't regularly attend class. What a brilliant idea.

How bout this you give away the shoes at the end of the year to kids who had a reasonable attendance record and a passing grade. hell don't how about the passing grade or showing improvement?

“We know this is a great cause for the community, it’s something that needs to be done,” Dorsey said, adding he’s not worried about the cost of all those shoes because “it’s about educating our kids.”

If Epidemic had his way, the kids feet would be so calloused , they wouldn't need shoes at the end of the year !!!
