Catholic School = Math School

A ten-year-old boy was failing math. His parents tried
everything from tutors to hypnosis, but to no avail. Finally,
at the insistence of a family friend, they decided to enroll
their son in a private Catholic school. 

After the first day, the boy's parents were surprised
when he walked in after school with a stern, focused and
very determined expression on his face, and went right
past them straight to his room, where he quietly closed
the door. 

For nearly two hours he toiled away in his room - with
math books strewn about his desk and the surrounding floor.
He emerged long enough to eat, and after quickly cleaning
his plate, went straight back to his room, closed the door,
and worked feverishly at his studies until bedtime. 

This pattern continued ceaselessly until it was time
for the first quarter report card. The boy walked in with
his report card -- unopened -- laid it on the dinner table
and went straight to his room. Cautiously, his mother opened
it, and to her amazement, she saw a bright red "A" under
the subject of MATH. 

Overjoyed, she and her husband rushed into their son's
room, thrilled at his remarkable progress. "Was it the
nuns that did it?," the father asked. The boy only shook
his head and said, "No." 

"Was it the one-on-one tutoring? The peer-mentoring?"
"No." 

"The textbooks? The teachers? The curriculum?" 

"Nope," said the son. "On that first day, when I walked
in the front door and saw that guy they nailed to the 'plus
sign,' I just knew they meant business!"
