Mr. Spaetzle: Caulfield, you should be grateful Bryson Elementary has a phys. ed teacher. Caulfield: I am! I'm even grateful for Mrs. Olsen, but that doesn't stop me from whiting out parts of her lesson plan. Oops. Was that thought audible? Mr. Spaetzle: I'm grateful for Caulfield. I'm grateful for Caulfield. Frazz: I would think. You meet with him almost daily.

I believe I had that. Always being sent to O-Shag-Hennessy’s office.

Seems to me he is both praying for strength and expressing real gratitude at having a student who offers challenges that brighten his daily struggle against indifference. Certainly did for me.

I bet Caufield actually improves the quality of lessons in Mrs. Olson’s room. He definitely increases the class exposure to the classics.

Love this strip, Caulfield reminds me of Calvin and Frazz reminds me of Hobbes, in body and mind. Great stuff.

Caulfield has just wandered into blatant disrespect. I can understand if he thinks that the teacher cannot teach him but whiting out her lesson plans means he thinks she just cannot teach.
But then that is about par for the course when it comes to the attitude towards teachers in America and why many of us left the field we love. The lack of respect and low pay just made it to exhausting.
I have a lot of respect for the good ones who remained in spite of this.

Zen buddhism would be thankful for the opportunity to practice your Zen. Sufis say that anyone who annoys you is a stick that god is poking you with to get your attention.
