It all started with these five kids who had grown up together since the same grade. They drove all of their teachers crazy. And they had fun doing it. In the 1st grade they were very bad. In the 2nd grade they got a little better but they were still bad. In the 3rd and 4th grades they drove the teachers bananas. In the 5th grade they went to detention for being so mischief. In the 6th and 7th grades they knew it was their last year together so they were more mischief than ever before.

There was this girl who always cried because a boy in her class always played pranks on her. He was the most mischief one of all. He was the one who intended to drive the teacher crazy. The others helped too but even though they tried, they never succeeded. They always got good grades too even though they were bad. Only one student got bad grades because he was lazy and slept in class because on school nights he always stayed up too late and played Nintendo and watched T.V. or movies. His grades were always C's and D's, and he had to wear a funny looking hat. His classmates always called him a dunce. There was another kid in the class who was a nerd. His grades were always A's. Even so, he sometimes didn't listen to the teacher and always chewed gum and blew bubbles in class. Then there was a kid who was always hyper, but he still did his work and got good grades.

In the 7th and 8th grades these kids went through five teachers. The fifth teacher decided to retire before she went crazy. Even after she left though she had to have a psychiatrist to cure the disease those kids had given to her.
