IT TAKES A POND TO RAISE A FROG!

Here at ToadSchool/Frog U we think that that there’s more to raising little pollywogs and tadpoles than teaching them how to sprout limbs. In the modern world it’s necessary to be a well rounded amphibian. Headmaster Bufo, a stern pondmaster, and Miss Rana, head of the P.E. Dept., believe that a god liberal arts education makes for well rounded little froglettes and toadsters. We follow the teachings of Dr. Maria Froggosori and allow a wide spectrum of activities to spark the imagination.

**************************************************

A frog walks into the bank to get a loan. He steps up to the counter and tells the clerk, Patty Wack, "Hi, I'd like to fill out an application for a loan". "Do you have any collateral for this loan", Patty Wack asks. The frog replies, "All I have is this statue of a unicorn. "Well, I don't know," says Patty Wack. "I'll have to ask the manager." Patty Wack shows the bank manager the unicorn. The bank manager looks at the statue and replies: "Knick Knack, Patty Wack. Give the frog a loan."
