RADNOR MIDDLE SCHOOL

December 2, 1999

 

Teacher: Kathy and Johnny, can you give the class a definition of the word " Overwhelmingly".

 

Kathy: " Overwhelmingly " , ok, lets see, to cover over completely, as with water; swallow up, as by a flood; to crush utterly; overcome with emotion; oppress beyond bearing. At least that's what my dictionary says!

 

Teacher: Very good Kathy! I like how you use the available resources to answer the question. And you Johnny?

 

Johnny: Well, since Kathy hogged the only dictionary in the class I had to use the newspaper on your desk, anyway, " Overwhelmingly " , RADNOR WANTS WAYNE MIDDLE SCHOOL. Is that right Mrs. Virgillio?

 

Teacher: You are both correct. Class, tomorrow's assignment is to write an essay to the school board using the word " Overwhelmingly " as many times as possible. Class dismissed. Johnny give me that paper back, I haven't read the society section. Oh and class, watch those stair wells.
