Don’t remember where I got the first one (might have been the Ryan Klesko list), but I love it because I used to teach at an Environmental Studies Middle Magnet School.  
I taught 7th Grade Reading at above mentioned school for 9 years before becoming an 8th Grade Guidance Counselor (different school) this year, so that explains the second one.

Mine’s from the “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee”. I look for any excuse to use funny lines from a Broadway show.
