The shirt reads: “NOTICE TO ALL STUDENTS” — then a list: leave excuses at the door; if you didn’t do your homework, just own it; if you didn’t understand the assignment, ask for help; if you didn’t study, accept the grade and decide to do better next time; this is not a democracy. It ends: “This is MY CLASSROOM, and I’m here for one reason only: TO TEACH YOU, TO INSPIRE YOU, TO HELP YOU GROW. I’ll do my part. The rest is up to you.”
It is set as a formal posted notice, with the closing lines in red.
The list is strict and the ending is not. That turn is what makes it a teacher’s shirt rather than a disciplinarian’s.
For teachers, for a classroom wall, and for the first week of term.
