   The administration at one New York City school gets an ‘F’ in   
   spelling.   
      
   Graduating eighth-graders at Robert F. Wagner Middle School on   
   Manhattan’s Upper East Side received diplomas with the word   
   “department” misspelled, MyFoxNY.com reported.   
      
   The word “department” is incorrectly spelled as “departmemt,”   
   with an “m” instead of an “n.”   
      
   "It didn't take me very long to notice the typo," said Nancy   
   Gardner, whose daughter Danielle is one of some 400 students who   
   graduated from the public school on June 19.   
      
   "It didn't take me very long to notice the typo."   
      
   - Nancy Gardner   
      
   One parent said that students received the diplomas with the   
   misspelling days before the official graduation ceremony, but   
   that there was neither a mention of the error nor an apology   
   during the ceremony.   
      
   "I'm sure next year they will be poring over those diplomas to   
   make sure every "i" is dotted and "t" is crossed," said Gardner.   
      
   The Department of Education told the station that it only prints   
   diplomas for high schools, and that the typo was likely created   
   by the middle school.   
      
   Wagner educators work to “challenge ourselves, encourage   
   rigorous expectations, and always strive for success.   
   Collaboratively, we prepare all students to be critical thinkers   
   for college, careers, and beyond,” according to the school’s   
   website.
