Little Johnny was doing very badly in math His parents had tried everything-tutors flash cards special learning centers in short everything that they could think of Finally in a last-ditch effort they took Johnny down and enrolled him in the local Catholic School After the first day little Johnny came home with a very serious look on his face He didn t kiss his mother hello Instead he went straight to his room and started studying Books and paper were spread out all over the room and Little Johnny was hard at work His mother was amazed She called him down to dinner and to her shock and amazement the minute he was done he marched back to his room without a word and in no time he was back hitting the books as hard as before This went on for some time day after day while the Mother tried to understand what had made all the difference Finally little Johnny brought home his report card He quietly laid it on the table and went up to his room and hit the books  With great trepidation his mom looked at it and to her surprise little Johnny had gotten an A in Math She could no longer contain her curiosity She went to his room and said Son what was it? Was it the nuns? Little Johnny looked at her and shook his head Well then She persisted was it the books the discipline the structure the uniforms WHAT was it?? Little Johnny looked at her and said Well on the first day of school when I saw that guy nailed to the plus sign I knew they weren t fooling around
