  • Who would ever have thought that “Death of a Salesman” could be so traumatic for a parent?
  • Heard a student say, “Move, b_ _ _ _ !” but she really said, “Move, please!”
  • A student ate CB’s gift of dried meat on the school bus on the way to school, so now he is the least favourite of the family!
  • We heard we have a new favourite teacher, Kanye West (ra)!
  • Accidentally said, “I don’t want to see your privates” instead of “I don’t want to see your private information.” Oops!
  • A previous student who is in college for graphic design will be coming to school to work on our silk-screening equipment with KM!
