When fire threatened the third-grade classroom at a Minnesota school, the class fish saved the day. Dory was swimming in a vase on a desk.
A forgotten candle started a small fire on the desk on Jan. 24, setting off the smoke alarm and shattering the fish bowl, spilling enough water to put out the flames.Firefighters found a few embers still glowing on the desk — and Dory still alive in a puddle.
Revased, Dory is doing well.
Cute story.
Now, can the school name its teams “Fire Fighting Fish”, or would that be demeaning to the fish?
Something sounds fishy about that story.
A new vase shouldn’t cost more than a fin if they scale back their expectations.
Who burns candles on their desk in the classroom? Sounds kind of dangerous to me….
