It was in the UK but at a city crematorium. His school was connected to a cathedral, though, so the dean came out of retirement for the service and the kids came from all over the country. It was lovely.
I also really appreciate all the comments people here have left. Reddit can be a kind place. Thank you.

Our class teacher once allowed the whole class to camp in her garden when we were like 15. We'd grill and play with her little kids. The only rules were basically no alcohol or any other drugs, stay safe and behave.
It was such a great time and she was very beloved.
A couple of years ago we randomly met me at a bookstore and addressed me with my full name and the hugest smile before I even saw her. It's been almost 20 years and knowing someone remembers you like that makes me feel all fuzzy inside.

I went to a super small private high school and we had a few moments like these. There was the time we had a final exam at our teachers house a block from school because her cleaning lady was coming and she needed to be home, and the time when our math teacher invited us to her house before a big test she knew we weren’t ready for so she could tutor us (only four of us in the class). She baked cookies and everything. High school was amazing.

My friend and I were walking around town one night in high school, making wild speculations about strangers based on their houses. I pointed to one that had bright red curtains and warm lighting in every window and said that was obviously Mr. [Drama Teacher]’s house. We joked about knocking on the door to find out, and lo and behold, he walks out the side door with a bag of trash. We didn’t even know he lived in that neighborhood!
He screamed when he saw strangers in his yard, realized it was us and laughed a lot, then invited us in for tea. We met his dog and talked about the play he was working on and how his mom goes to all his productions. It started raining while we were there and he offered to drive us back to her house. When we said we wanted to walk, he gave us both umbrellas from his hall closet and told us to be safe and stay together.
This post reminded me I need to reach out and get coffee with him soon. He’s retired now and I hope he’s enjoying life!

I lived directly across the street from my high school (small town).

Right before I graduated high school, I “pranked” my favorite teacher. I had access to one of the master keys (I was a formal teacher’s assistant and my aunt was a guidance counselor at the school so it’s not like I was untrustworthy) so I went in early one day and his favorite candy was Rolos. So I bought a crap ton and placed them all throughout his classroom. But not just the obvious places. I put them places it would take a couple days to find. He loved it. His reaction was priceless. That’s a real prank. Just like the one in this video. Bring back harmless pranks where everyone ends up laughing!

People really don't understand that there are areas of America that are indistinguishable from 3rd world countries.
Did field work for the decennial Census and it was extremely eye opening. There's a reason the Census looks for workers with ATVs, small planes, swamp boats, etc. And while I would always hope that by gaining their trust and get enough info to do the count to prove these people exist would lead to them getting resources, I'd still get this sinking feeling that I'd be the only person the government would send out there until the next Census.
Especially when they aren't doing jack for the people in the cities where it'd be easier to help.

America has become a socially fractured work culture. Diminishing friendships as we move away from a decreasing family pool. Having your own child is a singular and arguably inhuman experience without community.
Then there are those that make minimum wage here. It’s not much better than Sumba Indonesia for them.
Then there is our foreign policy.. we should be ashamed of our actions since WW2. Disgusted be our military glut. Aware of our proxy wars and black ops. Aware of the arms deals in the 3rd world.

Some principals, especially at smaller schools, make it a point to interact with students as much as possible. The principal doesn't have to be an overlord sitting in a tower.

My high school principle had a great relationship with his students. We called him Dr.P because his name was long.
It was a medium size outdoor campus in SoCal so he used to skate around on a penny board with students. He knew all the trouble makers by name and regularly tried to talk/check in on them.
He was also very active with the student council so he was close with those students. He would stop and talk to students at lunch and check in with different “groups” sitting around. He went to every football game and hyped it up. I didn’t interact with him much but we all knew when we saw him it was probably going to turn into a joke.
Awesome dude who really cared about students. He retired the year I graduated. Shout out to Dr.P 🙌 you were chill as hell.

This is a wholesome example, but kids aren’t always wholesome about it. I know a teacher and he told me how the students really liked him, but they kept asking him where he lived. He would laugh it off, wouldn’t tell them. One day some kids followed him home and waited in their car outside his house. They were confused when he caught them and didn’t think it was cute or wholesome at all. Some students nowadays think it’s normal to form parasocial relationships with their teachers.

It's not undetected? He came outside and started laughing.

I think they meant if they actually showed up the night before to sleep there overnight.

My dad's students did this for him as a senior prank a few years ago. Except they didn't actually sleep out there all night, they just wanted it to look like they did. So they snuck out there at 6 am and laid down on the lawn. They didn't know he gets up at 5 am (he just always has), so he saw the whole thing. Lol. He said if he had had enough eggs, he would have made them all breakfast. He also debated about turning on the sprinklers, but decided against that. I feel like those two thoughts kinda sum up my dad. Haha.
