Spanktown School

Sounds delicious 

Look what I learned today in history class.

Glad I don't have to go back to school anymore, not even the Spanktown school.

It's late August and as I wrote last time it's back to school for the kids in Holland. According to Wikipedia - which, unlike mistress, is not always right - schools in the United States usually reopen Wednesday after Labor Day, which means early September.

Southeast of New York is the town of Rahwah, New Jersey. "Known in the last century as Spanktown, the name having been given because an early settler publicly took his spouse across his knee and chastised her." No doubt US Supreme Court Justice Amy Coney Barrett approves. I don't. All spankings should be consensual and bring people joy. Not in the heat of the moment of course but you know what I mean.

Of course Spanktown had a school, how else do you learn? It didn't survive because these days it's a cemetary which is a bit odd.

Not sure how they motivated their pupils but one can dream. Something like this perhaps?

Two teachers 'educating' a student. Some only learn the hard way.
