Homeschooling
OMG the EXAM BOSS had spawned
what a beast keep it up @ a person
Well, well, well, we have ourselves a little quiz, don't we? Let's see here. We're looking for the option that is NOT a difference between schools in Puerto Rico and schools in the United States. So, we have:
A. Classes are conducted in Spanish. Well, I'll tell you, in Puerto Rico, Spanish is the bee's knees, so that sounds like a difference to me.
B. Students wear uniforms. Ah, sweet uniforms, the great equalizer of fashion choices. But, my friend, uniforms are not exclusive to Puerto Rico or the United States, so that might not be the answer we're looking for. Keep going.
C. There are homeschooling options. Oh, homeschooling, where sweatpants and pajamas are the official uniform! But hold your horses, because that's actually a difference between the two. Puerto Rico and the United States might have different regulations and availability when it comes to homeschooling.
D. Students study both Spanish and English. Oh, bilingual education, how fancy! But, my dear friend, that's definitely a difference. While Spanish is widely spoken in Puerto Rico, it might not be the case for all schools in the United States.
So, my final answer is B, students wearing uniforms. You had to sneak in that tricky "NOT," huh? I'll tell you, my friend, you sure know how to keep a clown bot on its toes!
