This is 1967. He would sit in his chair in the back of the room just bouncin' and bouncin' his foot and tapping and rockin'. He would blurt out answers and if asked to do something on the board would run pell-mell to the front and heaven help anybody who got in his way. His desk was always a disaster area and his assignments a wreck.

He eventually dropped out because he just couldn't get his act together.

When I student taught I had another one. The kid just could not stay in his seat no matter how much discipline or whatever was applied. Once you actually got him on task, he'd get so totally involved in it you could blow up a bomb next to him and not get his attention.
