High School Logic

Magical high schools are filled with extraordinary quests:
Arrive on a dragon's back for the first day of school.
Flirt with a mermaid without losing your cool.
Select the witch from the cheerleading squad.
See through the science teaching genie's facade.
And try to survive his class scratch free
Else you'll regret it, I guarentee.
Always extraordinary, especially the tests---

You have to fight brawn with brains. You have to study.
Get help from a frizzy haired smarty, or an old genius buddy.
Wave your wand. Wish upon your lucky comet,
Diplomas require sweat, blood, tears, possibly vomit.
The will to do whatever must be done:
Don't sleep for a month. Forget the meaning of fun.

Inspired by A.E. Stalling's Fairy-tale Logic
