Time To Wake Up For School!

It’s that time again . . . another school year begins. Some students are eager to reconnect with friends; others would be more so, if only school started at noon. To help get students, parents, and teachers back in the groove, here is some school humor—old corny jokes and famous quotes.

But I don’t want to go

Early one morning, a mother went in to wake up her son. “Wake up, son. It’s time to go to school.”

“But why, Mom? I don’t want to go.”

“Give me two reasons why you don’t want to go.”

“Well, the kids hate me for one, and the teachers hate me, too!”

“Oh, that’s no reason not to go to school. Come on now and get ready.”

“Give me two reasons why I should go to school.”

“Well, for one, you’re 52 years old. And for another, you’re the Head teacher!”

Holidays Are Over

The summer holiday was over and young Jack returned to Wicor school. Only two days later his teacher phoned his mother to tell her that Jack was misbehaving.

“Wait a minute,” mother said. “I had Jack with me for six weeks and I never called you once when he misbehaved.”
