I got the third best staff time during the Turkey Trot (beat several of my students’ times, despite being twice their age) and no one said a word about it after Thanksgiving. If I’d pulled a terrible time, students would still be making jokes in June.

But what are you going to do? Not engage in whatever challenge it is? C’mon, that’s not even an option.

That was after surviving football from 7th grade through college with no knee injuries.

Strange how these things work.

Mr. Magee!” in my school’s gym. And as long as there was no worker’s comp. case to file afterward, it’s all good.

Now, I do play in the annual faculty vs. student volleyball games, but an advantage of being a middle school teacher is that I still have a good bit of height advantage over our middle school girls, so I can usually spike just enough.
