In my opinion, Caulfield’s absolute best moment of compassionate interaction with both students and staff was Feb 8, 2015. Liked that better than any I have seen since. That might have been the last of its kind. I don’t remember any since then that were outstanding in that way.
Another excellent quality in Frazz strips is that, compared to many actual school environments, not one student has attempted to dominate another by either sarcasm or threat.
However, I can also understand Mallett’s reasons for not introducing the ugly into this idyllic setting. As a teacher for 25 years, I would have enjoyed experiencing a few times a year where I did not need to keep an eye out for the kind of behavior that took some of the joy out of the days.
I got this figure from a book I’m now reading called “Blue Mind: (skip ahead a long, long way if you don’t have a thing for ridiculously long subtitles) The Surprising Science That Shows How Being Near, In, On, or Under Water Can Make You Happier, Healthier, More Connected, and Better at What You Do.”
Eighty to 100 gallons? Come on. This book, of all books, should know that’s at least 99,920 gallons short, just based on the high-school pool I have masters practice in 5 mornings a week, and God knows how short it is on my lake days.
And you better believe I consider that a basic need anymore.

That figure probably includes growing your food and making the products you buy.

Mrs Olsen can teach him awkwardness by only letting the others to go to the bathroom.

Give Caulfield points for at least bringing up the subject, everyone else sits there in misery.

Won’t be so easy if they fill up the stalls before you get there, Caulfield.

BUT – did they have to go before he started talking about water?
