What were your fondest memories of school?

My third grade teacher. I had a crush on her. Reading Tales of Two Cities. One of my favorite books. Skipping 2nd grade and 2nd High School year. You didn't know I was that smart? LOL Having two girls compete for my attention at a school dance. Beating the crap out of someone that didn't want to stop making fun of me. Getting 100 in some school tests. Winning a spelling bee. Finishing the school day and running home to watch The Lone Ranger. Thanks for the memories!

A good B.C. morning to you, dear writersedge! Have been away from here for some-time as my 2 yr. old computer had a meltdown in June...still using whatever resources are available...including Library! Fondest memories of school...the journey each day! In spring, & Fall, I rode horseback..ooooh, the sounds of the Meadowlarks...AND winter, hunkered down in a sleigh-load of Hay...keeping Jack Frost at bay! What's funny, to me...is making butter was a common-place occurence in every home...but we would relish the times when we bought Margarine...it was white, and you added a little yellow-dye pack! Gosh, now, what I would give to be milking a Jersey cow...and making butter! Cheers!

My fourth, fifth and sixth grade teachers. They took me from an underachieving little poor girl to a child who blossomed with her abilities in math and spelling. I went from not wanting to be at school to refusing to be sick, because I did not want to miss it. I remember my seventh grade Science teacher, who actually taught us more about many aspects of life than I ever learned elsewhere. She introduced us to Edgar Allan Poe, when we talked about construction--how? Masons. Cask of Amontillado. Why did we learn about construction, I am not sure. We learned about the difference between astrology and astronomy, and what causes a blue baby (that got her in trouble, it involved child birth and Se*) and the causes of Autism, which have now been proven wrong. I learned so much. I liked my tenth grade Second Year Algebra class, loved my literature and creative writing classes. I had some very good teachers and some very poor teachers, but I did learn.

Strangely, my fondest memory was of my primary school days with this particular teacher named Mr Joseph Sim. I said strangely because there's many more memories from my secondary school days that are more interesting but this memory was the first thing that came to my mind. It was my fondest during that time because Mr Sim was my English teacher and he was like a friend to me too. Not just me, my whole class as well. During our physical education period which he would be taking us up as well, he would play a game of soccer with us and was really enthusiastic in the conversations that we have since most other teachers just view us as kids and didn't really talk to us like how he did. It was really a great time back then. He made my primary school days carefree and enjoyable. :)

My fondest memory of school was in the fifth grade. Because it is the last year of elementary school, every year the fifth grade class goes overnight camping for 2 days. I was a little reluctant to go at first because I had never really been away from my parents but I was so glad that I went. It was so much fun.
