A short explanation... I'm sure most of you have seen Taline's Jellicle High, which is absolutely amazing and awesome (and of which I am a HUGE fan). So... I must say here and now... NO... I didn't steal this (even though as the hyper half of the Frolickle Duo we do tend to go thieving every once in a while).
Lol....
But… I digress... I got permission from Taline to write this... you'll also see it on her site soon enough.... She likes to see other people’s versions of Jellicle High.
So... this is my story... you'll see a lot of the rules and thingies... (whatever you want to call 'em) on Taline's Jellicle High page. I hope you enjoy it...
Here are the characters as I portray them.
Teachers and Adults
Old Deuteronomy: Principal, very democratic, doesn't like to suspend or expel students unless absolutely necessary.
Gus: Drama, an old teacher, near retirement, enjoys working with the students and seeing talent grow and success achieved.
Asparagus: Phys. Ed., very athletic, tries to push his students to be the best they can be.
Jennyanydots: Home Ec., tends to mother her students and makes sure the lessons they learn will benefit them through their lives.
Jellylorum: English, very much a detail freak, thoroughly checks all assignments and exams for any spelling or grammatical errors.
Skimbleshanks: Auto shop, one of the three favorite teachers in the school, is very laid back and enjoys working with his students.
Growltiger: History, the second of the three favorites, he is thought to have some background in drama, as most of his lessons take a theatrical approach.
Griddlebone: Vocal, the flop course of the school, the third of the favorites, is adored by almost every tom, is young and giddy, which gets her into problems.
Grizabella: Secretary, doesn't enjoy her job and makes many of the students upset or angry by the way she acts, is mainly just misunderstood.
