haha when I was in theatre school, the teacher directing a play I was in wanted me to act it out like the girl who had the same role. We all shared a role and would alternate during performance. 14 girls, 7 roles. He kept criticising me and berating me that I wasn't like the other girl enough. I got fed up. The night before Opening, during dress rehearsal, I played my way. The chairman of the Theatre program told me that I had never performed that well before and that I had nailed it . Since then, I remember that moment of how being different and unique helped me achieve something, if ever I waver and wonder if I should fold back into the mold of sameness.
I think it's because there were payoffs or something, I don't think the school wanted attention... I know the admin was funneling money- it was finally released later. I was friends with three of the "good" teachers, and they were trying to start a change, even tho severely outnumbered.
Let's just say the new principal absolutely hated me. I was born without a filter ;)
This should be used as a Public Service Announcement. And hey, just in time for Back To School! LOL!
Your timing is spot on! Lol!
But please leave your brains at home, we have a strict policy against them...
All offenders will be _____________ 😏
Don't ask questions because we might fail you for it. Just sit quietly and obey all our orders.
Be like Sally. Be exactly like Sally. But don't copy her- we want you to be unique!

Great story.

Back to school, don't forget the matches!
Can't believe he wasn't charged, sounds dangerous!
Glad his brain is more engaged these days :)
