    Went through a bunch of it trying to figure what this is about. Give a hint. Is this some sort of course for the mentally challenged?

    I was really afraid you'd say that. Back in the days of dinosaurs I knew my teachers by their weapons (pointers, yardsticks, I had one nun who could put an eraser or piece of chalk on your nose from 50 paces), 75 was passing, and you didn't dare go home with less than 90. Nobody ever failed, not because they were pushed along, but because you just didn't dare. Nobody went to summer school. No need, you did your work during the year. Oh yeah, and the subjects were academic not how to wash your hands. That we learned at home before we were 3.
