"Ms. Trevor growled at me."

'This note from your teacher says you're doing great for a six year old. Doesn't she know you're fifteen?'

'TOLD ME YET. WHAT?'

"There's something weird about Emily. She actually likes school!"

'I didn't do my homework because I forgot my user name and password.'

'I'll give your note to my parents but our family policy is to never negotiate with terrorists.'

That's all very well sir, but is it full strength, low fat, high calcium or soy?

'Second grade. When did you discover 'LMNOP' wasn't one letter?'

"She said that girls mature faster than boys, so I pulled her hair."

"I thought your show-and-tell was really brave."

"I really love school. There's only one problem. I think not having a college degree is holding me back."

"It's Labor Day! The unofficial last day of summer!"

'I think my teacher has a crush on me. She's holding me back for another year.'

"Finally...school starts next week."

"But why can't I bring him to class? He's my therapy toad!"

Have you ever sued anyone for slander or libel, Randy? Indeed I have, little buddy. It was 1979. Francis Melba stood up in the middle of the cafeteria and accused me - in front of all the other kids - of being "nothing special." So I stood atop my table, ripped my shirt in two, slowly smoothed out my mustache, and then proceeded to flex my pecs, one at a time. HOJ.
