Teacher solves the mystery of the anonymous note
Inside, the text was again in block (the better to remain anonymous, my dear). “Last week in our spelling words,” it began, “we had the word ‘secretive.’ You pronounced it ‘se-krat-iv.’ The correct pronunciation is ‘si-kret-iv.’” Indeed. The note, of course, was unsigned – rather like something out of an Encyclopedia Brown mystery story. There is no need to put a quarter on the gas can though. I planned to figure it out myself. Being corrected did not bother me very long. Much better to swallow correction once and be forever wiser than to appear ignorant every time you say that word and have no one brave enough to tell you that you mispronounced it.
I remember friend Paul Devon Hochstetler telling how his teacher, Wendell Bailey, would slip a quarter onto pupil’s desks if they caught him making a mistake. That, my friends, is the atmosphere I want. It was the manner of correction that puzzled me a bit. Why did she – yeah, I’m fairly certain it was a she – employ all the cloak-and-dagger stuff? I mean, the thing looked like a ransom note. First I wanted to determine for certain who the protagonist is here. It was time for my Sherlock Holmes hat. Without much thought, I narrowed it down to two eighth-grade ladies. You teach a group of students for more than three years, you get a feel for personalities and tendencies. Quite elementary, Watson. In addition, I had seen one of these fine scholars hanging around the classroom after the others were gone. She is number one on the list. Of, course, I could have simply asked the class as a whole who wrote the note and she’d probably have
Next day; recess. There was a spirited game of dare base going on. I managed to sneak around eminent eighth-grader’s base and capture her teammate. Trooping past their base back to my own, I mentioned that I had been secretive in getting around them. I carefully watched this 14-year-old lady’s face as I said it. It was her, sure enough. I feel like I could work for Scotland Yard. Now to communicate my point that she need not be, well, secretive, about correcting me. Please enjoy my humble poetry. It describes what happened next. This eighth-grade lady, she’s so keen – A pronunciation queen. Her teacher slipped, her ears were upped. “Secretive” was the word he flubbed. A note was writ, dropped on his desk, Describing how he failed the test. A name? She wrote none on the note “Don’t want to seem too smart,” she quotes. Her teacher read, then had to smile, Reaching into his memory file. He knows who ‘twas, no need to fuss, E’en though it was anonymous He thought a bit, then applied the squeeze. “Come up here to my desk, please. Thanks, thanks to you, I’m up to par. Your reward? Enjoy this candy bar!” “Like you, I am at school to learn, And with this thought, let us adjourn. I stand corrected, hale and hearty. Now sign your notes, you little smarty!” Loren Beachy is an auctioneer and real estate broker with Bright Star Realty and Auctions in Middlebury. He was formerly an elementary school teacher at a local parochial school teacher for eight years. Some of his stories were written a few years ago while teaching. He enjoys fast horses, hot peppers, and strong coffee.

Actually, I’m quite fond of the idea of students digging deeper than their teacher digs and finding out for themselves the truth of the matter. I think it’s a healthy culture – within reason.
admitted it. This is an honest bunch. I’d prefer to have abet more fun with it though.

The note was in block letters, lying innocently on my desk at school. “Attention!” it demanded in big red caps on the outside.
