Why Teachers Fail
College professor says:
Such rawness in a pupil is a shame;
High school preparation is to blame.
High school teacher says:
Good heavens, what crudity—the boy's a fool,
The fault of course is the grammar school.
Grade school teacher cries:
From such stupidity may I be spared,
They send them to me so unprepared.
Kindergarten teacher says:
Such lack of training did I never see—
What kind of is woman must the mother be?
Mother laments:
Poor helpless child—he is not to blame,
His father's folks are just the same.
