Mr. Vought

In high school I was afraid to take Economy, because I'm really bad similar subjects. I was terrified, but it was required to take Economy, and my teacher was Mr. Vought. Mr. Vought was the BEST teacher ever. He made Econ so much fun and not only that but no one looked at him like he was a teacher, students looked at him as a friend. He would always be joking around, calling people funny nicknames. I got two nicknames from Mr. Vought, Prisilla Queen of the Desert, and Poo-Poo! Pretty funny, none of the students took the names as a bad thing; we knew Mr. Vought was just kidding around. Also, Mr. Vought and another teacher of mine, Mrs. Besnard would always have little fights with one another. Mr. Vought would go into Mrs. Besnard’s class and take all of her dry-eraser pens, or go as far as "stealing" her podium.
When Mrs. Besnard wanted to get back at him, she would come over and take his FAVORITE poster of Disney Land. That always meant war to Mr. Vought. Mr. Vought was just the best teacher ever. Since I had him first period, he would take doughnuts to class or take a little class trip to the cafeteria and let all the students get whatever they wanted from the cafeteria and just spend the whole class time eating and chatting away about whatever we wanted. But there is another reason that makes Mr. Vought my favorite teacher. He was the one that helped me graduate.
I had an $18 dollar fee to pay, and all the seniors had to pay their fees or else they wouldn't be able to walk across the stage at graduation. Every senior had to have their fees paid by 3:00 p.m. Of course, of all people I had to find $18 dollars fast. I only had one dollar, I asked all my friends, I even asked people I didn't know if they could donate a dollar to a senior. No one had any money, but then I got the courage to go up and ask a teacher. I saw Mr. Vought and I asked him if he had any money and would he help me pay for my fees. He didn't have any money... but he did let me take money from his "TIPS JAR.” He had a jar in his class called TIPS and everyone would always put change in the jar whenever they felt like it.
Sure enough, I paid all of my fees, with coins! I went back with my friend Katie Romer to thank Mr. Vought, thank you for lending me the money and I told him that I would pay him back, and then Mr. Vought had to make a funny remark, "Well, I'm just glad Poo-Poo that you’re graduating, because MAN, I'm tired of having to see you everyday." And of course, in translation that meant, "You’re Welcome!" Mr. Vought is and always will be my favorite teacher of all time.
