    Actually the rounded portion of a horseshoe magnet doesn’t attract anything, only the N and S poles on the two ends do.

    Was going to ask if that’s Timmy Failure, but I don’t think it looks right. If I had one of his Timmy Failure books I’d probably know if it looks right or not.

    “Magnet Schools” is a new one on me. Never heard the term in Canada, must be only American. Looked it up, it’s nothing new, been around since the 70’s.

    That kid better hang on for dear life or he’ll end up adding to the dropout rate.

    When they expel a student, they just have to change his polarity.

    Rat’s attitude is more prevalent among the bigwigs of teachers’ unions, who regard magnet schools as a threat to their funding and enrollments. Negotiations for the contract with Chicago Public Schools (CPS) are very much in the news right now around where I am. Trigger Warning: Cartoon-Boy’s understanding of what a “magnet school” is may be hazardous to your education.
