Looks like Im going back to school ....

So yesterday H went to pick up the cheerleading sweatshirt we have been fighting for since early December, as during my earlier conversation 2 days ago with the school I brought it up. In case you dont know what I am talking about I will go over it now.
H was a cheerleader, she finished out the football season and entered into the basketball season. During the basketball season she was constantly ridiculed by students on teams from her very own school. She couldnt take it anymore and after trying to get help from school officials that failed so her and I decided that it would be best for her mentally if she would take a break until next year. At that point we had already ordered her a very expensive cheer sweatshirt with her name on it and emblems on it. It was supposed to be a Christmas present. So when the other kids got their sweatshirts I called and asked where hers was, and was told she couldnt have one because she left the team. I was POED and fought for her sweatshirt, one because it was paid for but more importantly because it was a symbol of all the hard work she had accomplished physically and all she went through mentally. I was told the sweatshirt would be ordered and we would have it in several weeks. IT is now APRIL. We have no sweatshirt. When the bs happened at school 2 days ago I said and where is H 's sweatshirt? I was told it was at the school and she could pick it up tomorrow ( which was yesterday ) H called me after school to tell me she went to get her sweatshirt from the office and it had been " stolen" over the night. BULLSHIT! BULLSHIT BULLSHIT BULLSHIT! She never ordered it and obviously kept the money. Who would steal a sweatshirt with another kids name all over it? I called to speak to the principal again,ended up getting his secretary who is the mother to the girl that leads the cheer teams and is the one that was responsible for ordering the shirts.She wouldnt let me talk to him. So I went on the sly and called a different number and found his direct extension. I told him my issue AGAIN as he was already aware of it and he said he would handle it. He never called me back, so I called the guidance dept. SO due to a massive snow storm coming our way I cant make the 45 minute drive with the baby in my broken ass summercar so I have to miss work again. ( Thats entirely another worry and bad thing in my mind ) So I am going to be a student today. A student with a very active 9 month old baby. ALL DAY until I get what I want. I will be sure to post some video of this day to YOUTUBE if I dont get what I want. No holds barred. If kids call me SHAMU or whatever they do it will be broadcast online in several places unless my daughter comes home with a sweatshirt, and a smile from having one decent day at school.
