In these unprecedented times, administrators and staff have been forced to come up with solutions to problems they\u2019ve never had to face before. While some may consider scheduling and balancing in-person and remote learning to be of the most importance, Mr. Gasparini has been focusing on some overlooked issues. His favorite ongoing project, he didn\u2019t hesitate to tell us, solves many of the problems surrounding bathroom trips for in-person students.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIt\u2019s a brilliant plan, I must say. But who could expect less? We are JD after all,\u201d he boasted over the phone to YamPage reporters. \u201cHowever, before I start discussing its ingenuity, I would first like to give credit to my inspiration: Monsters Inc.<\/em> Or as I like to call it: \u2018The Greatest Movie of All Time.\u2019 Talk about outstanding characters, plot, and themes. What beautiful animation\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n He continued on to give us his full review of Monsters Inc.<\/em> and Monsters University<\/em> including a surprisingly decent \u201cRoz\u201d impression. If you would like to hear this in its entirety, we\u2019re sure he would be all too willing to tell you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAnyway, one of my favorite parts is when George Sanderson repeatedly gets jumped on by the CDA for breaking Code 2319.\u201d In normal people\u2019s terms, he\u2019s referring to the part where one monster goes through a thorough sanitation process performed by the Child Detection Agency (CDA) a number of times to get rid of any human germs. \u201cAnd I thought to myself, in times like these, JDHS really needs its own CDA to keep the building and its students safe. Of course, I had to make a few tweaks, but I think the greatness of the original still remains.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Mr. Gasparini has started a program known as T.E.A.S.E. which stands for The Escorting And Sanitation Establishment. Separated into two different agencies, one is in charge of escorting students from classroom to bathroom while avoiding unneeded interaction and the other is in charge of sanitizing the bathrooms between uses. While the Escorting Agency is being staffed by study hall students, Mr. Gasparini has recruited directly from Monstropolis for the Sanitation Agency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAnyone who\u2019s seen Monsters Inc.<\/em> knows that many former CDA agents are searching for employment and as soon as I informed them that they would be able to wear their old CDA uniforms again, I was flooded with applications,\u201d Mr. Gasparini told us. <\/p>\n\n\n\n With each CDA suit specially designed for the individual agent (in a stunning light mustard hue I might add), they truly are the pinnacle of fashion and we can understand why the agents wouldn\u2019t pause for a moment before accepting the offer to wear them again.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cAnd for the Escorting Agency, what\u2019s better than study hall students?\u201d Mr. Gasparini said. With a startling 76.2 percent of students taking a study hall this year due to the complicated scheduling, we have to agree. \u201cWhen I shared my plan with them,\u201d he added, \u201cmost were very willing to sacrifice their studying time in order to roam the halls for me.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n When the school year began, we didn\u2019t hesitate to jump into the high school\u2019s hallways to see T.E.A.S.E. in action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI think it\u2019s one of the greatest ideas ever,\u201d one agent told us as he escorted a fellow student safely to a bathroom. We were unable to identify him due to our distance of six feet and his mandatory uniform: a black suit with a black mask and tinted sunglasses. \u201cI get to escape my boring study hall to walk around the halls and meet up with frie- I mean guide totally random students who I\u2019ve never met and totally don\u2019t plan to meet up with to the bathroom safely.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sophomore Gavin Botto, who was being escorted by the agent, also gave a glowing review, making sure to emphasize the security the agents provided and their professionalism all while (we\u2019re making educated guesses here) smirking at his agent friend\u2026 I mean escorter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Sanitation Agency was far less open to interviews, and when we finally caught them at their secret hideout on the roof of the high school, they slipped through a random door they must have set up and disappeared.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \u201cI\u2019m glad to hear T.E.A.S.E. was such a hit,\u201d Mr. Gasparini, most likely beaming proudly under his mask, told us when we informed him of our findings. \u201cI knew combining two of my favorite things, Monsters Inc.<\/em> and JD, would be a major success.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n Might we venture to say this success has brought Mr. Gasparini\u2019s innovative self-confidence to a whole new, somewhat frightening level? Possibly. So if I were you, I would be on the lookout for more exceedingly ambitious Monsters Inc.<\/em> related projects in the future. And remote students, watch out. Mr. Gasparini may have mentioned hiring old Monsters Inc.<\/em> scarers to come in and wake you up right at 7:00 AM.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" In these unprecedented times, administrators and staff have been forced to come up with solutions to problems they\u2019ve never had to face before.
