The ONLY community objects in my classroom are the pencils and pens I find on the floor of my classroom and hallway.
I put them in a cigar box (yes, a cigar box) and any student who needs one can take them from that box.
My second cousin was the principal at ACCC. I suspect she was the “Wildwood Girl” from the song back in the ‘60s.
Couldn’t find her a** with both hands, the boys did that.
Fellow teacher who hosted her wedding afterparty was teaching Heating and Cooling, like Heat pump repair. His didn’t work, he was waiting for Monday when the real men would come fix it for him.
He was showing off a simple toy from New Hope, PA (AKA gay town) that took him an hour to figure out. I solved it in about ten minutes and he tried to take it out of my hands just before I finished.
You may quote me:
“Journalism majors are the only people who keep teachers from being the stupidest people on earth with a college degree”.
I tend to believe Neal. Perhaps your area is unusual.
