KEY AND PEELE'S TEACHING CENTER

Key and Peele at Comedy Central report for Teaching Center.  Unlike UFT Teacher Center, Key and Peele's version is like ESPN's Sports Center. We see this year's college draft for teachers.  The school with the worst test scores picks first.

This is a hilarious take on what television would be like if our society went gaga over teachers the way we do about sports. The SAT scores rolling at the bottom are priceless as is the analysis of the teacher calling on the student who didn't raise his hand. It would be great if our salaries were about a tenth of what these teachers were signing for.

Time, Slate and even Bleacher Report have picked up on Teaching Center so why not ICE.

And for those with a bit of a memory, enjoy these substitute teacher classics from Key and Peele's character Mr. Garvey.

If the second clip isn't the Absent Teacher Reserve life, I don't know what is.  I am not talking about the language, just the absurdity of being new in a strange school and knowing nothing about the school's culture. When I had my first assignment as an ATR, I was directed toward these videos by one of the teachers at Aviation HS.

I apologize to anyone who is offended.  We'll get back to the usual stuff next post.
