Teacher's Pet

Did anyone else's parents put them up to this?

With the school season about to start up, I was anxious to meet my teacher for the year. My mother would encourage me to walk up to the school the week before school started to introduce myself and offer to help the teacher set up their classroom.

As a kid, it felt harmless, but now as an adult, I wonder what the teacher thought. Did they think it unfair for my Mom to send me up for THEM to watch? Did it seem like an attempt at favoritism in the classroom for the upcoming school year?

Hopefully the teacher was appreciative of meeting me early, and welcomed the help setting up their classroom. 😊
