Nickelodeon wanted to make SpongeBob a school student because they thought kids would like that more. However, Stephen Hillenburg's vision was that SpongeBob was an adult working at a restaurant. In the end, they compromised. They made SpongeBob attend Driving School, but had it play out more like a grade school than a real life Driving School. Another great school episode I recommend is Artist Unknown, which involves the self righteous Squidward teaching SpongeBob an art class.
That makes total sense. It seems like the “boating school” is way more similar to a traditional public school. I imagine students would relate to that more. However, I know they branded it more as an adult education program, because SpongeBob is a “fry cook” and working adult, like you mentioned. I will take a look at the episode you recommended, thank you so much! 😎👍
@@SchoolPrincipalReacts It's a funny episode. A good foil to this one where you see a good teacher, this other one shows the kind of teacher who is...less than idle and how badly that can affect students.
I'm a little surprised they didn't go the college route. Most college students are adults that work par-to-full time jobs, plus there's tons of shenanigans to get into on campus.
Last year a boy was calling me a piece of shit and I got mad cuz the teachers did nothing about it and they said I started it until I remembered that I actually DID start it cuz before that I slapped him for picking on my friend so I can understand why they thought I started it cuz I did.
There’s not many school episodes in SpongeBob but another good one is an episode where a really mean instructor briefly replaces Mrs Puff. It’s called “Mrs. Puff, you’re fired”.
The sticky stuff is called mounting putty. I wanna say that the original product name was mighty putty. My detention was pretty much the typical sitting around. Students could do whatever so long it was quiet, in the room, and not on an electronic device. And fun fact: I was only in detention cause my music teacher heard my brother talking and thought it was me.
Thanks! Yes, I have seen detentions like this, too! I was a music teacher before becoming a principal. I have to say that unfortunately this happens a lot because you have so many people in there sitting very close together, especially for band or chorus. Thanks for watching! 😎👍
@@SchoolPrincipalReacts What's it like being a principal, what kind of work do you do, I always see them just standing around like a shepherd, or doing some sort of paperwork that I know nothing about, what do they even do?
It’s challenging and rewarding at the same time. It’s true that we do try and stand in the hallways while students are changing classes. Principals are responsible for everything that happens in a school, good or bad. They observe classes, evaluate teacher and other staff, making hiring decisions, oversee student discipline, manage budgets, and many other things. There’s a lot to it! Thanks for the question, and thanks for watching! 😎👍
@@SchoolPrincipalReacts Hi. You mentioned overseeing discipline. I’ve wondered, if a student gets expelled from public school, would you ultimately make that decision or is there a process you have to follow in your role to get to a point where the decision to expel a pupil is reached? There was apparently one kid in my high school when I was a senior (and from the rumor mill, no, I do not believe they were in my class) who supposedly turned in a paper and was found to have plagiarized the whole thing. The teacher, I guess after recognizing the writing style was not that of the student who submitted the assignment, typed in the first sentence or two into Google and found what the student had given them. I never got a copy of the student handbook in a format I could actually read so was not fully aware of what would happen after such a serious and stupid thing anyone can do in that setting. That would be grounds for expulsion, correct? Never did find out what actually happened or who the person was.
Maybe you’ve gotten recommended these series but Recess and Ned’s Declassified School Survival Guide. Both imo smartly written shows surrounding school systems
When I was in kindergarten, if you had a good day, the teacher would give you a special construction paper bear pinned to your shirt that said “Give me a hug! I was good today!” And I would get a hug from my mom. One day, I was too talkative and did not get my bear. I thought my mom wouldn’t be able to hug me and I cried.
This legitimately does happen, I don't know what overpowers you while bored in class but man it does and suddenly you're laughing hysterically at "24."
One of my college math classes two years ago actually used a chalkboard. I remember I was surprised seeing it and had to adjust to the chalk scraping sounds lol
Yes, I would agree - the scraping sounds of chalk would be unnerving to most people now because they’re not used to it. In my case, chalkboards were common in elementary and middle school, but faded away after that. Most modern classrooms simply don’t have them and have moved to dry erase boards, smart boards, and interactive panels. Thanks for watching! 😎👍
Wonderful episode! I remember some teachers that would give out little pieces of candy for rewards. I would be just as excited for star stickers but the candy seemed to work with a lot more students. When you thought the little scraper for the stars was going to be used to whack SpongeBob, it made me think of that King of the Hill episode where Peggy uses that paddle on her students! I always wondered if schools actually used to do that. When I was in a private school, there wasn’t any physical punishment but a lot of times I would be made to stand in front of the class for the whole duration if I forgot my book. I never liked that style of punishment. Why make me stand when another student would have let me share her book? 😭 When I switched to public school that’s when I discovered detention is just sitting in a room with nothing to do and you can’t talk to anyone 😂
Thanks for the feedback! Some schools do still employ paddling/corporal punishment and some don’t. You tend to see it used in more rural areas. It is still legal on many places, but some schools just decide not to do it. Thanks so much for watching and sharing this!😎👍
As of recently, I have seen a few classrooms with both chalkboards and whiteboards, but the chalkboards tend to get used as nothing more than calendars, while the whiteboards are the things used for instruction.
In the 70s, chalkboards were used for learning. Started in 2016, teachers use Promethean boards, which can be a real pain in the ass (pardon my French, but it’s true)
Going to back to the detention part. At the high school I went to there was a pretty serious punishment called ISS (In Student Suspension). When you got that punishment you would have to come to the school on Saturday and sit at a desk for 8 hours and just sit there not doing anything. You would not be able to do homework, sleep, talk to other kids, or play with your electronic device. I would like to know your opinion about that.
Hi there! I think ISS is pretty common at high schools. There was a different high school I worked at as an administrator that had Saturday School. In real life, all of these are efforts by the school to correct behavior - we should never “punish” students, but correct bad behavior. Every consequence should just be an effort to do this. The reality is that how to do this effectively may vary from school to school, because each school is going to have different students with different needs. There are schools where having Saturday School could be effective at curtailing bad behavior, and some schools where it wouldn’t be effective at all. I will say that what you are describing is exactly how I’ve seen it done in the past! 😂 Thanks so much for watching! 😎👍
You know something that's weird, we always usually see the boating school as one small classroom in a small building yet in this episode, it's interior became an entire school with multiple classrooms and stuff XD
The gummy stuff is called bluetac here in Northern Ireland. I've seen it used lots of times. I'm autistic and tend to fiddle around some times, so i was given a piece of blue tac to fiddle around with in my hands during primary school mass.
when I was in grade school I remember I swept the classroom during reses and every I was given candy. also I missed pizza days grade school for a time did pizza day on Fridays was like 2 bucks for a slice. maybe around 20 years ago
For my high school detentions, students were sent to collect litter around parts of the school during lunch and show the teacher. I guess schools are allowed to design their own detention?
Yes - this is different at every school - one of my previous schools did as you described. In the end, schools cannot force physical labor on students, but many offer it as an alternative to just sitting in a room. Thanks for watching!
Patrick Star is now transferred to Mrs. Puff's Boating School as a Transfer Student... A nd I also use to have some kind of Star Chart which was known as a Happy Face Chart and if you earn all Happy Faces, this means you win a Prize from the Prize Box...
In 3rd grade we had to write in our journals. The teacher was stepping out and said if anyone gets up there will be consequences. I had to sharpen my pencil so I got up to sharpen it. She came back and saw me and sent me to the quiet room....
We had tons of fights in my 6-10th grades. Fights in the halls where some kids would gather around and chant and some would just push past annoyed to get to class. If it was girls fighting, blood and torn scalp would have to be cleaned up. Everyone would know when there would be a group fight after school, and a hundred or so kids would show up in the parking lot. They were treated kinda like violent flash mosh pits by plenty. It wasn’t a bad part of town, but upper-lower/lower-middle class. My schools also had cops physically chase kids down for drug busts, a few bomb threats, and metal detectors for the last couple weeks each year. (This was Plano, TX, a bit outside Dallas)
Yes, unfortunately some schools are like this. One school I previously worked at had some of these elements, although not all. It’s not fair to the kids that just go to school and do what they need to do.
Yeah we ran by a demerit system, and once you get 5 demerits you'd get detention. Getting demerits was obnoxiously easy which made things difficult for me since I was either in workout club after school, or HAD to go home due to family reasons. My demerits mainly came from me forgetting my homework. dark times...
In 3rd or 4th grade my class had a whole bunch of eggs in an incubator, when they hatched a few kids that lived on larger pieces of land took them home
I believe in some States Cartoon Network was Channel 24 and Nickelodeon was Channel 25 so the "Funnier than 24" joke may have been a subtle jab at the rival network.
At the beginning SpongeBob explains the significance of the egg, the shell represents the thin line between life and death, and the light bulb represents knowledge keeping the egg alive, it's a metaphor for the class
Almost like phrases or quotes teachers remind the class or implanted on the walls of classrooms, such as a way to improve positive behavior (it wasn't too common in the schools I was in, but I'd guess it became an efficient way in other schools)-- mostly in Elementary schools.
if you liked this episode, there's an episode where a bully attends the same school as SpongeBob. Season 3 Episode 6: The Bully. you don't have to react to it if you don't want to though. also you're one of the nicest principals I've ever seen.
It something I always think when I watching shows on tv or TH-cam. It might be unrealistic and not real but it can be somewhat related to real life that does make sense. Like things u not suppose to do in class or school and what you can do to do it right. Some shows can show meaning of friendship, romance, drama and fight how to deal with it. Sometimes you can learn from shows too. And something I always think when I watching cartoon is they always try to show us something to learn that we can learn for real life. Like how to handle yourself in school. How life can sometimes be tough but not impossible.
I agree with you - it has been interesting doing these reaction videos. In some shows, the portrayals are so unrealistic that it's crazy. Sometimes the show is extremely accurate. More often, it is somewhat a mix of the two. Thanks for watching!
I just subscribed to your channel. As someone who was at Public school middle school for a year before getting homeschooled, there is a huge dose of bad that happens there, but some good.
Yes - I think it is also drastically different depending on where you are, and which school you go to. I have a short on homeschooling also you should check out. Thanks so much for subscribing! 😎😎😎
Through highschool even with my A's and B's, I sat in the back of class. I found with my minor anxieties that sitting right at the front made me uncomfortable, distracted and less willing to learn. We all have various reasons for doing things
I’ve never seen a detention room without a monitor in real life. Whenever a detention monitor leaves the room in movies, the detention students always cause a ruckus somehow. And the detention rooms I am used to forbade students to put any supplies on their desks (including papers), so they had no opportunity to do their homework or anything while in detention. Sleeping in detention could also cost them, even though their motives were clearly easy to decipher. I’ve also seen the detention rooms where students would be forced to write sentences on chalkboards over and over again in books, but I have a feeling those are highly uncommon nowadays.
Yes. Detention will always have an adult there. And yes, I used to see situations where students would copy down a school handbook or something similar, but I don’t really see that anymore. Thanks for watching! 😎👍
I'm not even gonna lie Mr. Im 25 and went to HS in Mid Michigan and graduated in 2016. I had a friend in school just like Patrick and I frequently got into trouble with him and had to be separated in many cases due to being a distraction while they were trying to teach. At the time, I didn't realize how hard I was actually making the teachers life, but now feel extremely bad and can relate. I even got a sent to the vp office a few times for too many reminders...😢
When I was a kid, my parents did something just like Mrs. Puff’s good noodle chart, except if we did something wrong, we would get a written check mark on paper instead of losing a star.
Yeah but you can see as much as I can basically that this is a direct violation it's a building violation of code this is when code enforcement that's one of the boys can be shut down until those repairs get made I've seen this happen to a lot of buildings homes and if there's cracked walls mold bad flooring at that place is not get patched or repaired it gets shut down until those repairs are made
I once won a writing contest in school, a savings bond, and yet again it was my uncle's work, but again when I tried to out him as the writer, he convinced them that I was lying for modesty
7:34 That remains me, i once lived in Hawaii when i was a kid do to my Dad was in the military for 10 years, in school they had student take off there shoes when entering the class as there cubbies for each student’s shoes, when i move back the mainland i got in trouble for taking my shoes off. hehe my Mom had to explain why😅
Well I’m from Mexico and over here we don’t have that kind of detention, the thing we had that was something similar was to stay in a classroon at recess, and that’s it. We had something we called “seguimiento” that literally would be translated to “following” but it was more like a “strike”, if you misbehaved you would receive a strike and if you got THREE STRIKES you would be suspended I think it was for a week, if you got suspended three times you were finally expelled. In the 13 years I studied in the same school I only got two strikes XD but got several notes for failing at exams and forgetting some homeworks. And I have to mention but here in Mexico is extremely rare that lockers and trophies shelves are located at the hallways, lockers are mostly inside classrooms and trophies sometimes are put at the principal’s office or in the library, and also is extremely rare that schools in Mexico have hallways.
Hey! Thanks! I have had teacher friends from Mexico. The education systems from different countries are so different. I actually speak Spanish also. Some people want me to do my Dragon Ball Z reaction in Spanish. I know it is super popular there. What do you think? Thanks for watching! 😎👍
@@SchoolPrincipalReacts thanks professor for answering my comment. Yes our education systems are very different but I have to confess that I envy yours for I have friends from the USA and friends from Mexico that had studied in the USA and from what they told me it looks like your public education sustems is pretty good, well from my point of view, because in Mexico the public education is deficient, the books sometimes are not enough for each student, some professors are not prepared to teach a subject, some schools do not have labs, english is taught by professors who can barely pronounce pencil and sometimes students live so far from their schools that they miss it and parents work all day that they don’t even have time to go pick them up for we don’t have bus service from school and is damn dangerous for kids nowadays to walk by themselves. OH IT’S GREAT YOU CAN SPEAK SPANISH TOO! Esta muy chido, I’m gonna write in spanish now: SI! Deberias hacer una video reaccion del doblaje de Dragon Ball Z en latino, es una serie muy popular en Latinoamerica y que para muchos de mi generacion formo parte de niestra infancia y sus actores de doblaje son como estrellas para nosotros, te puedo recomendar que si decides hacer el video, inicies con la escena de Goku transformandose en SSJ por primera vez o cuando Gohan estalla en ira y se convierte en SSJ2 pero en este ultimo te recomiendo que veas la version SIN LA CANCION, que originalmente se transmition en latinoamerica así en los 90s. Ah y un dato sobre el doblaje si haz visto la serie en Inglés, notarás a veces que en Latino los gritos no son tan potentes, esto porque en México usaron de base el guión en japonés y la serie también en japonés como base para el doblaje y trataron de apegarse lo más posible al idioma original. Have a nice day Professor! :)
Gracias! Todavia estoy pensando a hacer una version nueva en español - leeré tu consejo de nueva cuando lo hago! Y claro gracias por seguir a mirar mis videos! 😎
Crowds of students may not chant “Fight! Fight! Fight!” over and over again out of nowhere when an argument happens, but they can kind of exacerbate a situation if memory serves. I remember one girl in my class ended up having a baby during her school term and another girl was giving her grief over it. I couldn’t say for sure whether or not it would have escalated into a fight on it’s own, but the crowd jeering after every insult probably didn’t do anything to simmer things down.
13:24 it happened in my middle school when I was in there, and I admit, I started it... it was worth it though because due to that they legit just stopped doing what they were doing, they were gonna fight but sec I started it, they stopped... still got in trouble though...
11:24 Tell that to my 2nd grade teacher who put my desk in the hall and just handed assignments to me For context: I flipped someone off… I was like -3 years old. I didn’t know what it meant. I didn’t know it meant anything at all. I had a scratch on my middle finger and was just showing it 😅
Whenever a teacher had to move a disruptive student, they would always put the student next to me, because I would never talk during class. Our desks weren't set up like this in Spongebob, they were always touching each other
I don’t see anyone mentioning this, but the sticky stuff for the walls you were mentioning at the 10:00 mark is called Ticky Tac. Or at least that’s what my family always called it. I don’t know if that’s the official name for it.
I remember in my 2nd grade class, we all got our own kits with beetle. We all raised our own from larvae to beetle, and the 1st grade class was incubating chicks. It was so much fun
When I was in high school we didn’t have detention we had what we called lunch detention or sometimes us kids called it lunch jail we would stay during lunch break and had to fill out worksheets until it was over it sucked I had it only once in my life and it was bad
I hate it when teachers immediately jump to conclusions and punish students that get blamed without evidence. That happened a lot to me when I was in school. But I'm in college now and I'm about to graduate.
I had an awesome science project that got an award; only one problem it wasn't mine, but my uncle's and I tried to out the info, but he somehow convinced them, that I was lying out of modesty; it was egg sucked through glass bottle
I guess what makes this Episode kind of Mean-spirited, is that Patrick Gets No Consequence for Getting SpongeBob in Trouble, and how Mrs. Puff is Unware that it was Patrick that did The Drawing.
Hi i just discovered your channel. Have you considered reacting to the breakfast club? 5 high School kids have to serve an all day Saturday detention in case you haven't heard of it
You should try Hey Arnold as well, they have plenty of school episodes you can react to. Most preferably the episode when the Principle hired a drill sergeant to teach Arnold's class.
I think school removed chalk board for a very good reason XD Noone loves a screetch from a chalk board also its always a irritating sound by calks but also when the rubber gets too much dust someone has to dust them off and that dust can be seriously toxic or bad for the lungs. idk if teacher did dust them by clapping two against each others but yeah. Also the rubber didnt clean the chalkboard really good u have to use water for it.

My schools also had cops physically chase kids down for drug busts, a few bomb threats, and metal detectors for the last couple weeks each year. (This was Plano, TX, a bit outside Dallas)
Yes, unfortunately some schools are like this. One school I previously worked at had some of these elements, although not all. It’s not fair to the kids that just go to school and do what they need to do.
Yeah we ran by a demerit system, and once you get 5 demerits you'd get detention. Getting demerits was obnoxiously easy which made things difficult for me since I was either in workout club after school, or HAD to go home due to family reasons. My demerits mainly came from me forgetting my homework. dark times...
Lol! Yes I have seen systems like this before. Thanks for sharing this!
What’s funny is tht at 6:48 u can actually see the 24 minutes when he said it
In 3rd or 4th grade my class had a whole bunch of eggs in an incubator, when they hatched a few kids that lived on larger pieces of land took them home
Cool! 🥚
14:42, In my school, you got to read in detention, which made it a bookworm’s recess
I believe in some States Cartoon Network was Channel 24 and Nickelodeon was Channel 25 so the "Funnier than 24" joke may have been a subtle jab at the rival network.
Ahhhhh ok interesting!
One of the funniest episodes of the show.
Yes, I agree!
Thanks for watching! 😎👍
At the beginning SpongeBob explains the significance of the egg, the shell represents the thin line between life and death, and the light bulb represents knowledge keeping the egg alive, it's a metaphor for the class
Yes! 👍
Almost like phrases or quotes teachers remind the class or implanted on the walls of classrooms, such as a way to improve positive behavior (it wasn't too common in the schools I was in, but I'd guess it became an efficient way in other schools)-- mostly in Elementary schools.
if you liked this episode, there's an episode where a bully attends the same school as SpongeBob. Season 3 Episode 6: The Bully. you don't have to react to it if you don't want to though. also you're one of the nicest principals I've ever seen.
Thanks! I’ll look into it!!! 😊
Thanks for the kind words! 😎👍
2 disruptions and Spongebob loses a star? In a school like that, I'd never have any stars ever
Lol! 😂
Yes, every teacher is a little different, aren’t they?
Thanks for watching! 😎👍
It something I always think when I watching shows on tv or TH-cam. It might be unrealistic and not real but it can be somewhat related to real life that does make sense. Like things u not suppose to do in class or school and what you can do to do it right. Some shows can show meaning of friendship, romance, drama and fight how to deal with it. Sometimes you can learn from shows too. And something I always think when I watching cartoon is they always try to show us something to learn that we can learn for real life. Like how to handle yourself in school. How life can sometimes be tough but not impossible.
I agree with you - it has been interesting doing these reaction videos. In some shows, the portrayals are so unrealistic that it's crazy. Sometimes the show is extremely accurate. More often, it is somewhat a mix of the two.
Thanks for watching!
love how they treat boating school like a actual high school
Yes lol
I just subscribed to your channel. As someone who was at Public school middle school for a year before getting homeschooled, there is a huge dose of bad that happens there, but some good.
Yes - I think it is also drastically different depending on where you are, and which school you go to. I have a short on homeschooling also you should check out. Thanks so much for subscribing! 😎😎😎
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 12:56 Spongebob absorbed in being a roast master and packgod 💅💅💅💅💅💅💅🧽🧽🧽🧽🧽🧽🧽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️😎😎😎😎😎😎
Through highschool even with my A's and B's, I sat in the back of class. I found with my minor anxieties that sitting right at the front made me uncomfortable, distracted and less willing to learn. We all have various reasons for doing things
I’ve never seen a detention room without a monitor in real life. Whenever a detention monitor leaves the room in movies, the detention students always cause a ruckus somehow. And the detention rooms I am used to forbade students to put any supplies on their desks (including papers), so they had no opportunity to do their homework or anything while in detention. Sleeping in detention could also cost them, even though their motives were clearly easy to decipher.
I’ve also seen the detention rooms where students would be forced to write sentences on chalkboards over and over again in books, but I have a feeling those are highly uncommon nowadays.
Yes. Detention will always have an adult there. And yes, I used to see situations where students would copy down a school handbook or something similar, but I don’t really see that anymore. Thanks for watching! 😎👍
I'm not even gonna lie Mr. Im 25 and went to HS in Mid Michigan and graduated in 2016.
I had a friend in school just like Patrick and I frequently got into trouble with him and had to be separated in many cases due to being a distraction while they were trying to teach.
At the time, I didn't realize how hard I was actually making the teachers life, but now feel extremely bad and can relate. I even got a sent to the vp office a few times for too many reminders...😢
It is okay. Plenty of students come to this realization later in life. I think it’s fairly common, actually. Thanks for watching! 😎👍
When I was a kid, my parents did something just like Mrs. Puff’s good noodle chart, except if we did something wrong, we would get a written check mark on paper instead of losing a star.
Ah yes - this has become common. Students tend to respond more when they can visualize this.
Thanks for sharing this! 👍
Yeah but you can see as much as I can basically that this is a direct violation it's a building violation of code this is when code enforcement that's one of the boys can be shut down until those repairs get made I've seen this happen to a lot of buildings homes and if there's cracked walls mold bad flooring at that place is not get patched or repaired it gets shut down until those repairs are made
I once won a writing contest in school, a savings bond, and yet again it was my uncle's work, but again when I tried to out him as the writer, he convinced them that I was lying for modesty
7:34 That remains me, i once lived in Hawaii when i was a kid do to my Dad was in the military for 10 years, in school they had student take off there shoes when entering the class as there cubbies for each student’s shoes, when i move back the mainland i got in trouble for taking my shoes off. hehe my Mom had to explain why😅
Yes, difference in cultures 😎👍
I graduated from high school in 2017 and my high school still had chalkboards in majority of the of the classrooms.
Wow! I’m really surprised at that! 👍
The gummy stuff was called sticky tac
Thanks!
we had blue sticky tack for the walls. this was very informative great video!
Thanks for watching! 😎👍
I think you’re describing Blu tack. I used to eat it back in elementary and middle school. It Dissolves
13:04 Thats my middle school.
Well I’m from Mexico and over here we don’t have that kind of detention, the thing we had that was something similar was to stay in a classroon at recess, and that’s it.
We had something we called “seguimiento” that literally would be translated to “following” but it was more like a “strike”, if you misbehaved you would receive a strike and if you got THREE STRIKES you would be suspended I think it was for a week, if you got suspended three times you were finally expelled. In the 13 years I studied in the same school I only got two strikes XD but got several notes for failing at exams and forgetting some homeworks.
And I have to mention but here in Mexico is extremely rare that lockers and trophies shelves are located at the hallways, lockers are mostly inside classrooms and trophies sometimes are put at the principal’s office or in the library, and also is extremely rare that schools in Mexico have hallways.
Hey!
Thanks! I have had teacher friends from Mexico. The education systems from different countries are so different.
I actually speak Spanish also. Some people want me to do my Dragon Ball Z reaction in Spanish. I know it is super popular there. What do you think?
Thanks for watching! 😎👍
@@SchoolPrincipalReacts thanks professor for answering my comment.
Yes our education systems are very different but I have to confess that I envy yours for I have friends from the USA and friends from Mexico that had studied in the USA and from what they told me it looks like your public education sustems is pretty good, well from my point of view, because in Mexico the public education is deficient, the books sometimes are not enough for each student, some professors are not prepared to teach a subject, some schools do not have labs, english is taught by professors who can barely pronounce pencil and sometimes students live so far from their schools that they miss it and parents work all day that they don’t even have time to go pick them up for we don’t have bus service from school and is damn dangerous for kids nowadays to walk by themselves.
OH IT’S GREAT YOU CAN SPEAK SPANISH TOO!
Esta muy chido, I’m gonna write in spanish now: SI! Deberias hacer una video reaccion del doblaje de Dragon Ball Z en latino, es una serie muy popular en Latinoamerica y que para muchos de mi generacion formo parte de niestra infancia y sus actores de doblaje son como estrellas para nosotros, te puedo recomendar que si decides hacer el video, inicies con la escena de Goku transformandose en SSJ por primera vez o cuando Gohan estalla en ira y se convierte en SSJ2 pero en este ultimo te recomiendo que veas la version SIN LA CANCION, que originalmente se transmition en latinoamerica así en los 90s.
Ah y un dato sobre el doblaje si haz visto la serie en Inglés, notarás a veces que en Latino los gritos no son tan potentes, esto porque en México usaron de base el guión en japonés y la serie también en japonés como base para el doblaje y trataron de apegarse lo más posible al idioma original.
Have a nice day Professor! :)
Gracias! Todavia estoy pensando a hacer una version nueva en español - leeré tu consejo de nueva cuando lo hago!
Y claro gracias por seguir a mirar mis videos! 😎
12:44 SpongeBob definitely has a point, if Mrs. Puff should've blame Patrick, he'd should get detention in the first place.
At my school we called the sticky stuff sticky tack
Ah ok. Thanks! 😎👍
A trophy case from the 1960s had better be updated -- those are highly valuable vintage trophies! 😂
😂
Crowds of students may not chant “Fight! Fight! Fight!” over and over again out of nowhere when an argument happens, but they can kind of exacerbate a situation if memory serves. I remember one girl in my class ended up having a baby during her school term and another girl was giving her grief over it. I couldn’t say for sure whether or not it would have escalated into a fight on it’s own, but the crowd jeering after every insult probably didn’t do anything to simmer things down.
You are right, unfortunately!
I didn't know the glue/putty stuff was a real thing! Fun fact of the day ^^
Yep!
Thanks for watching! 😎👍
"What's funnier than 24?" "What?" "25."
I thought that was funny too. 😂
I don't get the joke. Is it what it's seem as just numbers or something else? (Like directed to an adult joke, perhaps?)
13:24 it happened in my middle school when I was in there, and I admit, I started it... it was worth it though because due to that they legit just stopped doing what they were doing, they were gonna fight but sec I started it, they stopped... still got in trouble though...
11:24 Tell that to my 2nd grade teacher who put my desk in the hall and just handed assignments to me
For context: I flipped someone off… I was like -3 years old. I didn’t know what it meant. I didn’t know it meant anything at all. I had a scratch on my middle finger and was just showing it 😅
Yeah in detention they just had us do homework
Yep! 😆
Whenever a teacher had to move a disruptive student, they would always put the student next to me, because I would never talk during class. Our desks weren't set up like this in Spongebob, they were always touching each other
I see. Yes, I have seen this done before! Maybe the teacher thought you would be a positive influence! 😎
Thanks for watching!
I don’t see anyone mentioning this, but the sticky stuff for the walls you were mentioning at the 10:00 mark is called Ticky Tac. Or at least that’s what my family always called it. I don’t know if that’s the official name for it.
Thanks! A few other viewers have said this also.
You want to see a chalkboard in the school? Then come to germany! We also have DVD players and overhead projectors
Thanks for the feedback!
I actually went to Berlin in 2018 to study the German Education System. It was neat! 🇩🇪
The gum stuff you’re talking about is “Sticky Tape”, at least that’s what it was call when I was in school.
Ahhhh yes, thanks! 👍
Or blue tac/white tac
9:49 sticky tack
Thanks!
Easily a great episode of my favorite show! Here’s a suggestion for a school centered episode: Making The Grade (The Loud House)
Thanks! I will definitely check it out!
Thanks for watching! 😎👍
Love this review! One of my favorite SpongeBob episodes.
Thanks for watching! 😎👍
we use tally marks for points on the whiteboard and each time we lose a point a teacher erases a tally mark off (coming from a high school student)
Ah yes, I remember seeing different variations of this!
Thanks for watching! 😎👍
i’d like to add-my classmates get greedy and want the teacher too add more points each time they increase
I've seen this happen, too! lol
At my school we don't have detention, we only have ISS (In School Suspension)
I remember in my 2nd grade class, we all got our own kits with beetle. We all raised our own from larvae to beetle, and the 1st grade class was incubating chicks. It was so much fun
Wow cool!
My grandmother taught for 60yrs has wrote on chalkboard back in the day
Yep! 😂 I just haven’t seen it in a while!
Thanks for watching! 😎👍
Weirdly enough i had kids that would crowd around other's and chant fight in high school if things got loud between 2 people
Weird. That is not the norm, although the crowding around is normal, unfortunately.
@SchoolPrincipalReacts oh yeah definitely not the norm, probably just the environment (I live in miami Florida so it can be pretty wild here)
4:18 I’m sorry, but can someone explain to me why there’s a science project going on in a DRIVING school? Like… that literally makes no sense
Yes I agree! 😂
When I was in high school we didn’t have detention we had what we called lunch detention or sometimes us kids called it lunch jail we would stay during lunch break and had to fill out worksheets until it was over it sucked I had it only once in my life and it was bad
I have seen that also! Lunch jail lol.
the big question is, how is sponge bob so dedicated in driving school yet can never pass
I know, right?
2:31 interesting, I've seen chalk boards all throughout school, and now in university too
Wow 😮
I love your channel!!
Thanks! That's the best compliment ever!
Officer fish: and if you called Mrs puff is a big fat meanie you’re going to jail!
9:08 Thats me in 3rd Grade cuz I was watching TV and I thought hitting my head would make me smarter.
Late for being early= discard trespassing laws
Yes, I guess so lol!
I hate it when teachers immediately jump to conclusions and punish students that get blamed without evidence. That happened a lot to me when I was in school. But I'm in college now and I'm about to graduate.
Congrats!
I had an awesome science project that got an award; only one problem it wasn't mine, but my uncle's and I tried to out the info, but he somehow convinced them, that I was lying out of modesty; it was egg sucked through glass bottle
Because "The Internet is new territory" for Germany, chalkboards are everywhere.
My school didn't get smart boards until I was a junior. I graduated in 2009.
I guess what makes this Episode kind of Mean-spirited, is that Patrick Gets No Consequence for Getting SpongeBob in Trouble, and how Mrs. Puff is Unware that it was Patrick that did The Drawing.
In my elementary school, we called it ticky tack
Thanks!
And thanks for watching! 😎👍
Hi i just discovered your channel. Have you considered reacting to the breakfast club? 5 high School kids have to serve an all day Saturday detention in case you haven't heard of it
I added it to my list! Thanks! 😃👍
We have this thing called blue tac in my school. It could be the stinky stuff you were talking about if that helps
That’s it! 👍
@SchoolPrincipalReacts And your welcome😎
9:36 i think its called sticky tac
Ok, Spongebob had his first warning, but after that, it wasn't really his fault after that. Rightfully upset to Patrick.
You should try Hey Arnold as well, they have plenty of school episodes you can react to. Most preferably the episode when the Principle hired a drill sergeant to teach Arnold's class.
Lol! I will check it out. Let me know if you get the name of the episode!
@@SchoolPrincipalReacts The Episode is called "New Teacher," season 2 of Hey Arnold.
Another fire video 🔥
Thanks for watching! 😎👍
Where I'm from it's called blue tack, sticky and blue in colour with a gum like texture. It could go by a different name in the US though.
8:27 ISS That's where your going if you write something like that or maybe OSS.
I liked sitting up front because I had poor eyesight so it helped me see the board
👍
I think school removed chalk board for a very good reason XD Noone loves a screetch from a chalk board also its always a irritating sound by calks but also when the rubber gets too much dust someone has to dust them off and that dust can be seriously toxic or bad for the lungs. idk if teacher did dust them by clapping two against each others but yeah. Also the rubber didnt clean the chalkboard really good u have to use water for it.
I agree - it made a mess and made unpleasant sounds. These days most people use a dry erase board or smartboard.
