Quote for the Day 12/10/2012
The community writing project my comp students are working on has elicited some serious competition among the students.*
Student #1: My dad was so intelligent that he got to skip the third grade.
Student #2: Well, my dad was so intelligent that he dropped out of college because he decided he was wasting his money.
Student #3: My mom got the highest score in the county on the achievement tests--in science. Her teacher told her she could be a scientist.
Student #1: My dad was always a teacher's pet.
**********************
*As is often the case with my quotes, a disclaimer is in order. The exact words above may or may not have been uttered. All the facts are true, however, and a very similar dialog did take place.
