I remember in elementary school always having to take a quiz on what that weeks lessons were on Friday. Forget shouldn’t have to be a night before, that was like four days and nights before. And spelling was even worse in fourth grade at my last elementary school because the teacher decided we had to take a spelling test on Monday AND Friday. Monday we were tested on the words we were going to learn that week so we had to spell them before we even learned how to spell them. And if you misspelled a word Monday, you had to spell it out like fifty times for homework that night along with the other spelling homework. And that was after having to spell each word twenty times in class after the test anyway. I mean it would have been fine to say “Ok, here are the twenty words we’re learning this week. Write each out twenty times.” The idea was to learn how to spell the words so you might get the correct spelling Friday, and that’s what my 5th and 6th grade teachers did on Monday. But that idea of testing us on spelling words we’d not yet learned when most of us weren’t Spelling Bee material and then punishing us for misspelling any word was just sadistic.
I agree with you Snoopy. There should NOT be a night before. It makes the unpleasant situation in the morning more unpleasant. I think you will make out well. I hear the Head Beagle is very understanding.

Love that second panel. Snoopy looks like the loneliest beagle in the world.
