When we were little my sister and I went to public school. Every day we used to have to say the pledge of allegiance. One day my sister and I were showing my parents how well we said it and they couldn't stop laughing and we couldn't figure out why. Instead of my sister say "and to the republic for WHICH IT STANDS," she used to say "and to the republic for RICHARD SANDS!" I don't think she realized she said it wrong until she was in highschool!
I got in a lot of trouble when I was at school. One day when I was 9 my best friends told me there was a gilloteen on the roof of the school and they were going to chop my head off for being naughty!! I beleived this and went and hid in the bushes and didn't come out untill the grounds keeper found me. I carried on beleiving this for about a year, I'm 14 now and my friends have still not let me live it down!

When I was in grade school, my friend told me that at night, the teachers slept naked on our work tables. From that point on I was always disgusted when we had to do a project at the work tables.
I pledge allegiance, to the spam of the united skates of america, and to the repugnant, for Richard Stanz, one naked, under God, Invisible, with liberty and puffed rice for all!

When I was really young in public school...we had a principal named Mr. Ritchie.
For some strange reason...I thought that all principals of all schools were named Mr. Ritchie.
Funny...a mind with little experience...amazing what it comes up with!

When I was in first grade I use to believe that the teachers slept in the school. I was so sure that they lived there and that the closet where they kept their supplies was where they really kept their clothes. I also was convinced that the desk was really a bed...I'm so dumb..

When I was in 5th grade we were taught about how Louis armstrong,edwin aldrin and buzz collins were the first people on the moon. The lesson clearly said that they found no traces of inhabitation on the moon but when they came back they came with many specimen. And I kept wondering that if there were no people in space how did they come back with these speci-men.

In grades 1-2, I was homeschooled. I had never seen a public school before, and somehow got in my mind that a class room was a great big room with a stage and a spotlight, where the teacher taught from. The students sat in semi darkness and were somehow able to read and write in the dark without damaging their eyes. I never did attend pubic school, as I now go to a private school, and when I hear classroom, I still think of the same thing... and I'm in 6th grade.
hall of fame
I used to believe that whenever I failed an exam, I'd fail my life. After that, I was nearly killed by a car once but survived somehow. I still fear it...

When I was in 3rd grade, some of the older kids gave us advice and warnings about what to expect with our new teacher. She was a little picky wouldn't let us in the very front of the room so the older kids told us that she had an invisible fence surrounding that area and if we walked through it, we'd get electrocuted. For the first half of the school year I was puzzled as to how we weren't zapped everytime we had to write on or clean the chalkboard.
I was so gullible...
I told my little sister, when she was 6 (she's 11 now) that I went to Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and for aaaaaages she believed me. I had a Harry Potter bag with the Hogwarts Crest on it and she said to me "woow Dumbledore must be really happy that you have a bag with the Hogwarts Crest on" I agreed with her and showed her the wand I bought from Diagon Alley, which was actually a stick I found in my garden! She still denies she ever believed me!

In kindergarten, we only had to go to school for a half day, so I always wondered what all the other kids did when we were gone. I never understood that one day I would find out--I thought I'd be done with school after Kindergarten.

in kindergarden, i was in the afternoon class, and me and the whole class used to complain, cause we didn't get to hear the announcements and the pledge. so we all used to think that before we came in every afternoon, theyd shove a sock in the speakers. and when the teacher left, we'd all smeel around for the sock...
I used to believe my teacher was a psycho killer and would come kill me in my sleep. My teachers last name was Smith and I saw something on the news about a murderer and who they thought it was. I never missed a homework assignment, and apologized about seven times when I'd make an error on my work. My teacher was pretty worried about me, and one day she asked me to stay after...I was so nervous I almost pissed my pants. I was in sixth grade.
I used to believe that teachers lived in the school and really just didn't have a life outside of school. And I thought that their "teacher name" (Mrs. So-and-So) was their name, I didn't think they had a first name.
I never could hear very well, and I remember in Kindergarten that the teacher was calling roll and everyone was saying "present." I was very excited because I thought I was going to get a present! Then, in first grade the same thing happened again and I was really sad cause I never got my present!

when i was in kindergarden we would say the pledge of alliegence. i was always wondering when we were going to cover our hearts with our left hand, or both hands
I used to think in kindergarten and first grade that if you got 'kicked out of school' for failing, misbehaving, or whatever, that the principal would come and take you to the door of the school and literally kick you out.
