here was once a girl who really hated school. She would sometimes say she was sick or she would not go to the school bus. Everyday her mother would check to make sure she went to school. Most times her backpack was full of schoolwork but it was actually drawings so her mother never knew.Whenever the girl went to school she would draw in her desk, but eventually would get scolded. Most times when she wasn't there, her friends would claim she went on vacation or was sick. But the real reason she hated school was because the school did nothing on computers. When she grew up she wanted to go to Stanford and have a degree in computers.
So everyday the girl wasn't in school, she would go through a forest of trees, over a frozen river, and into a stump. The stump was awesome. It had a computer desk, snacks, a cabinet and voice activated computer. The girl was very smart indeed. She had saved all the money in her life she every found or earned to buy everything.
One day when she told her friends I won't be going to school the teacher started to wonder. That night after all children would go to sleep, the teacher called the girl's mother. The teacher asked if the girl ever became ill, but the reply was never. The teacher said thank you and began to wonder.
So the next day she said no school and decided to follow the girl. When the teacher saw the stump she was amazed. It seemed like she was having school all by herself. After much thought the teacher discovered the girl hated school. The teacher thought there must be a way to explain how important school is. Then suddenly she realized, that she wanted to have a degree in computers.
The next day the girl went to school. During recess the teacher asked to talk the girl.
The teacher told the girl, "I can see you don't like school, but if you don't go to school how will you get a degree in computers."
The girl surprised that anyone cared replied, "Computers you don't need to know anything you teach."
Prepared the teacher replied," If you don't know anything how will you go to Stanford. Stanford only allows the best and the smartest. You must be smart in everything to got there."
From then on the girl would go to school and she eventually got a degree in computers happy that the teacher helped her.
The End
