Science Department overlaps gym and lab day to encourage student cloning
When some students received their second semester schedule yesterday, they noticed something shocking: their lab and gym days were the same. A and D days had nothing scheduled, but B and E had both lab and gym scheduled for the exact same period. Some students went to the guidance department in search of help. However, the answer they discovered there was certainly not what they expected - the overlapping was intentional. It was an attempt by the science department to encourage star students to clone or otherwise duplicate themselves to allow them to attend two classes at once.
"It's a problem we've encountered since what seems like the beginning of time," a chemistry teacher said. "There just never seems to be enough class periods around for our gifted students to take all the classes that they should. We figured we'd pass the problem onto the students, who should easily be able to figure out how to clone themselves using their advanced chemistry knowledge." "It's just an issue of motivation," another teacher continued. "I'm sure many students have already figured out the secret to cloning, but just didn't have a reason to follow through on it. The prospect of class-cutting Saturday detentions for the rest of the semester will surely provide that extra push."
