Shirley Moger (AKA Moberg) is a big reason for that. She's more than the superintendent of a single-school (K-12) school district, she's also a no-nonsense enforcer of moral speech and conduct.
Earlier this year, Mrs Moger recieved national attention for taking a tough stance against pornographic t-shirts.
Shirley Moberg, superintendent of Climax-Shelly schools, said T-shirts bearing the town's slogan "Climax ? More than just a feeling," are inappropriate because of the sexual innuendo.
About a dozen students wore centennial T-shirts to school this week in protest, and one girl was sent home Wednesday for refusing to turn her shirt inside out.
School officials had said nothing to students wearing the shirts until recently, when a teacher wore it to school and a person complained. The shirts are no longer allowed to be worn at school, she said.
Climax, a town of 270 near the North Dakota border, adopted the "More than a feeling" slogan in 1996 for its centennial. The slogan was used in advertising and promotions, and the T-shirts have been around for years.
The students who wore the shirt to school Wednesday were told to go to the bathroom and turn it inside out. All did, except 18-year-old Bethany Grove, a senior, who was suspended for the afternoon.
Now, she's in the news again. This time for single-handedly breaking up a vicious Dramamine peddling ring.
A rural Minnesota school superintendent recruited a 16-year-old girl for an impromptu drug sting in a high school bathroom - and the girl ended up with eight pills in her mouth when the seller ordered her to swallow on the spot.
Instead, the teen hid the pills under her tongue until she could spit them into a napkin, which she turned over to Climax superintendent Shirley Moger, who gave the girl $5. The pills turned out to be the motion-sickness drug Dramamine.
