Rich Kids

I always knew that I taught in a wealthy neighborhood, but today it became very apparent.

For a presentation my middle school students had to pick a well known painting and discuss it. The first group chose the Mona Lisa. One girl commented she did not like it because it was so small. Another kid said, "yeah I didn't like that either." Five of my students (in a class of 10) have been to the Louvre. The next group picked The Last Supper. Three of the students have been to Milan and seen it!

I thought I had traveled a lot, but I have nothing on my students.
