JONESBORO, Ga. -- Clayton County's interim superintendent has scrapped every graduating senior's diploma, because his name is not on them.
John Thompson, who has been on the job less than a month, said on Saturday that for a graduate's diploma to be truly accurate, his name needs to be on it.
The shredded diplomas are just the latest chapter in the saga over Clayton County schools' accreditation. The school system is primed to be the first in the state to lose its accreditation unless a host of changes are made by Sept. 1. That means the county's 52,000 students could face roadblocks getting scholarships and earning spots at many colleges.
Here's the genius Affirmative Action Ape itself:
