Frazz by Jef Mallett for October 05, 2023

The grape thrower.

It makes sense. The harder the crossword, the worse Mrs Olsen’s mood. Ergo, the tests become harder.

Caulfield probably throws off the grade curve and somebody isn’t happy. First time I have seen this kind of openly unhappy expression of feelings from other students toward Caulfield. Been lots of negative comments about him from readers but not action from a student.

Sunday’s take-home quiz will be themed.

These kids get a quiz every day of the week? Including Sundays? What kind of school is this‽

Frazz has to pick up the mess.

Just read your Facebook post. So sorry for the changes and “don’t panic” is a good way to deal.

He’s like a reverse class clown: just as disruptive, but not doing it for popularity.

Just trying to make America grape again!

I’m older than many of you, but no class I was in — from first grade through university — was ever graded on a curve. The purpose of the grade was to compare me to the subject, and not to my classmates.

Both should apologize.

Don’t compare Miss Olson to Will Shortz, please.
