Locker Shocker

Mizz C, poor old thing from the Jurassic Era, thought she had a hot study tip. In her A+ Guide to Great Grades she recommended that all you middle grade students keep a plain old shoe box of extra school supplies in your lockers in case you run out of pens or paper before class. 

An old shoe box, Mizz C??????????? Didn't she ever hear about locker decor? Well, now she has, and it almost made her faint face down into her beloved New York Times. She just discovered that 

some middle graders decorate their lockers with chandeliers!

The article made Mizz C. feel as if she should just give up writing about study skills. She was certainly too late to add locker chandeliers to the school supplies list in her book. 

Mizz C's book describes how students' lockers are like “a home away from home” and explains how to organize them. She just didn't know students were out there turning their lockers into real homes with chandeliers and shag rugs. Perhaps she needs to get with the program. Well, maybe next century.  

P.S. Mizz C. knows very well that lots of boys and girls are not out shopping for locker chandeliers and such. So she has a useful decorating idea for any student who wants to hang something nice and practical in a locker—a little flashlight in case things get dark and messy in there. (Of course. Mizz C's A+ followers won’t have messy lockers once they read the A+ Guide to Great Grades.)
