A young boy is failing math in school. The teacher spends extra time with him, no improvement. The parents spend extra time, no improvement. Mom hires a private tutor, no improvement. He is just not interested, makes little effort, seems doomed to failure.

As a last resort he is placed in a Catholic school. On day one, he returns from school and races up to his room to study. He comes down only to gobble down a quick dinner, then returns immediately to his studies. This sequence repeats daily.

Then he receives his first report card from the new school. Math: A+. His parents are astounded. They question him on what finally motivated him.

His response: “They take math seriously in this school! You should see it, in every room there’s this guy nailed to a giant plus sign!”

I’d heard that one with the setup being that it’s a Jewish kid: showcasing how desperate the parents must be, to send him to a Catholic school, to say nothing of the ethnicity of said guy nailed to said plus sign…
