Class is back in session!

Anticipatory Set: Schools are still cutting arts programs. How is this still a thing? Athletics is still untouchable, but the school musical? Pottery? Dance? They’ve got to go. Unbelievable.

Getting schooled: Glenn Holland is a horrible human. He won’t learn ASL to talk to his deaf son. He takes a rebellious kid to a funeral. He almost cheats on his wife with a femme fatale from Norse mythology. So let’s reward him with a retirement assembly where people play his dumb symphony. After many, many, many history montages, Ronnie cries over a dead pet and emotionally manipulates Justin to feel bad about his role in it. Now how does one sign the word “a-hole”? 

Exit ticket: Teachers who have left teaching tell where they find fulfillment in new careers. One teacher finds it while working for Costco and not in the Kirkland booze section.
