Default These kids today...

First a little background...I teach physics at the local high school and I drive our Corvette to school regularly. I park it in the school parking lot, and since I arrive early I always get the same spot. The kids know who drives the car.

Last week I arrived at school and the sign behind my parking spot was covered in wrapping paper. I thought about it and I did not remember a sign behind my usual parking space. When I removed the wrapping paper, this is what I found...



They custom ordered the sign and put the post in a 5-gallon bucket with 75 lbs. of cement. Around midnight they met at the school and buried the bucket right behind my usual parking space.

Can you believe the kids these days?

Hopefully these kids infect more kids with their attitudes. You must be one awesome teacher for them to do this...Good for you. Very cool!

Ah. Getting near finals. Wonder if there is a conection?

We all loved our physics teacher as he had a still in the back of the classroom. Do you know that alcohol is unstable at 180 proof? Or maybe it was us.

Great Story. It's refreshment to hear about the kid's that care and show it. Oh, don't change your teaching style, 'cause it's obviously working.
