Garfield Staff Superlatives
A toast to roasts.
In honor of April Fools and our upcoming return to in-person learning, the 2021 Messenger staff reached out to some of our most beloved teachers to create a Teacher’s Superlative. Though we all enjoy poking a little fun at the Garfield staff, it should be noted that we received consent to publish all of these ‘roasts’ and love our teachers very much. -Messenger editors <3
