Art class. I live and breathe that stuff, my dude. It's the best classroom under the sun.

What was your most embarrassing moment during your time at Tusky Valley?

In third grade I was "in love" with a boy in my class, right? So one day I wrote "will you be my boyfriend" on a piece of notebook paper, folded it into an airplane, and threw it across the room at his face. It accidentally poked him in the eye though, which I'm pretty sure eliminated my chance right off the bat. But instead of circling either "yes" or "no", he felt the need to hand the note to the teacher, and had HER inform me that he didn't like me. I was heartbroken lol. @Clint

Which project, paper, assignment, etc. that you completed during your time at TV (K-12) were you most proud of and which teacher was it completed for?
