Officials with the town of Holden Massachusetts have acknowledged an error when the warning sign on a road near the Mountview Middle School that should have read "SCHOOL SLOW" was spelled SHCOOL by mistake on Wednesday.
The city officials wanted to correct the mistake of misspelling the word school but due to bad weather in the area, the corrections that were needed to be made were postponed.
As the old saying goes "Nobody's perfect." But the spirit of the sign is a warning to motorists to slow down in a school zone.

@Deepizzaguy In India English is a second language and most shop keepers have their education in the local language.

I am starting to believe the reports on the alternate media that students are starting to fail basic writing skills.

It is funny since some people will start thinking that they are in a real life Twilight Zone.
Oh no! It's true nobody is perfect, but that's sad they'd mess up the word "school"
