Gee, is that all it took to earn the privilege of cleaning the blackboards? I would have been bad more often if that was the case! I know most classrooms probably don’t have chalkboards anymore, but just in case there are a few out there, here’s a helpful tip: Should any student decide to pull a prank and replace the white chalk with white crayons and you don’t catch it right away, the crayon comes off with a pencil eraser. When this happened to my 5th grade teacher, her math class had to spend the period cleaning it off. In this case it was an accident, not a prank, though.

I’ve not noticed this before, but today’s strip shows that both Nancy AND Sluggo are left-handed, aka southpaws.
And for contrast, the classroom teacher is right-handed and has beautiful hair.

I love Ernie’s generic “you’ve been bad”. Specificity adds nothing to the joke.

OK, but their next destination will surely be the principal’s office. Laugh that off kids.

Never thought of cleaning blackboards like that
