I tend to get a lot of former students visiting during "meet the teacher" night. One highly precocious student from last year stopped by for a brief chat. Keep in mind, this child is nine...
Mrs. B: So how about those test scores! You exceeded in reading and math!
Emmett: Yup. I knew I would, but my sister...(shakes his head in disbelief and chagrin)...she's dyslexic.
Mrs. B: Really? How do you know?
Emmett: Oh, I just know. But I think if they put her in the gifted classroom, she'd bump up.
Mrs. B: Interesting analysis. Are you planning on being a teacher when you grow up?
Emmett: (horrified at the thought) Oh, no. Teachers don't make enough money!
