A new CRK teacher, transferred to a
JSS 2
class during the mid term, wanted to
know
how well the students understood the
syllabus so far. He decided to start from the
last topic the previous teacher had
taught,
"Hello class, who broke down the
walls of
Jericho?" There was a full minute of absolute
silence.
All the students just stared at him
blankly.
The teacher then pointed at the
students in the front desk to answer the
question.
The students began responding.
Amos: "Sir I'm a new student here, I
just
started this school last week." John: "Sir the day
the walls was
broken, I
didn't come to school, I swear"
MARY: "Sir I only passed by the walls
of
Jericho, I didn't even touch it, as it was already
broken when I passed it."
Rufus: "Sir, I didn't even know the
walls
had been broken, until you mentioned
it
now." The teacher became so shocked and
infuriated, "What!!!" He screamed. The
Students began murmuring amongst
themselves that the new teacher is so
mean.
The teacher, shocked by their ignorance,
stormed to the principals office to tell
him
what happened. The principal kindly
responded, "Sorry about that. You
know how mischievous these JSS students
can
be? Always destroying things and
later
denying it. But be rest assured, this
matter would be fully investigated. Just write
down the total cost in fixing the said
wall,
and at the next PTA meeting the issue
would be discussed"

principal? Please register with my forum www.entertainmentwd.com
