Jojo is very bright, Mr. Cobb, but he won't apply himself. when he's focused, he does just fine. But the slightest thing causes his mind to drift away. Mr. Cobb? This looks a lot like my classroom at his age.
Sounds like he’s hyperactive, something that teachers are trained to identify in kids. They’re required to report what they see to the parents and the Principal. Hyperactivity(ADHD) is genetically based. Gator 007 & KabBuch both got it right. Girls can also be hyperactive. As one who is hyperactive, I can relate to this even though I was born before hyperactive kids had a diagnostic method and could be medicated. I am amazed that Joe can keep his job.
