Miss Willow Bangs

Not everyone is what they seem. Miss Willow Bangs, the teacher who seems to have a soul made of stone and a heart that only pulses for arithmetic, is soft on the inside. This teacher, this "monster", this stealer of spring loves the Art Teacher. Miss Bangs wants to bask in Spring just as much as the children. Even though she is the teacher holding them hostage inside the brick walls, she has a free spirit. It isn't a child's spirit, but it is a spirit after all. Teachers feel the Spring too. They feel the longing for new beginnings. They aren't just lovers of pencils but of hearts as well. Remember that the next time you think a teacher has no soul; they long for Summer as much as you!
