Back to School Kindness Special

With Schools going back in session soon, maybe there can be a new Kindness special that would have a plot line similar to A Christmas Carol in which a greedy School Superintendent is visited by three spirits on how to focus on school faculty & students for the upcoming school year. The story begins with the Superintendent planning for the next school year during a meeting with the Principals from various schools. The Superintendent is more concerned about test scores & budgets rather than the students' interests & has a list of what programs to cut to make room for standardrized testing. After the meeting, the Superintendnet is visited by his predecessor's ghost while getting ready for bed. The ghost warns the Superintendent that he will be visited by three spirits & that he will have a similar fate if he doesn't change his ways. The first ghost shows the Superintendent's past, which showcases his own tough school years & how he evolved to the way he is. The second ghost takes the Superintendent to the homes of various students & faculty, who are nervous about the upcoming school year. The Superintendent then learns how these students are struggling in classes, as well as the faculty members that need help with their careers. Finally, the Superintendent is visited by the third ghost, who takes him to a future in which the school is shut down with no child having a proper education. Learning the errors of his ways, the Superintendent decides not to go with the Standardrized Testing plan & tries to help the Students by expanding the programs he intended to cut earlier with the help of various faculty members. This special can show that learning should be fun and everybody still needs to be educated, even after their school years.
