Did You Hear?

This morning, our school district decided to close two hours early due to snow.  The principal made an announcement that all teachers should look at their emails.  The kids said Are we getting out early?  to which one teacher replied I don't know, and if I did, I would not be allowed to tell you.

Whereupon one kid came into the room and said Hey, we're getting out early, did you hear?

Organizational attempts to keep juicy secrets are almost always futile.
