Went back to the middle school for a day
Student 1: I'm the best trombone player in this group now that [other trombonist] switched bands. Student 2: No, I am. That's why you guys always have to read off the notes in my music. Student 3: That's a lie, don't believe her, Mr. Baumgartner! Me: I have no reason to NOT believe her. Student 3 [African-American]: You're just saying that because [Student 2] is a girl! I feel so discriminated against! I can't stand this anymore, I'm going back to Africa! I miss my 6th graders. |
