- Scout Finch - 2School"Before the first morning was over, Miss Caroline Fisher, our teacher, hauled me up to the front of the room and patted the palm of my had with a ruler, then made me stand in the corner until noon,"
- Scout Finch - 3School"Miss Caroline was no more than twenty one. She had bright auburn hair, pink cheeks, and wore crimson finger-nail polish. She also wore high-heeled pumps and a red-and-white striped dress. She looked and smelled like a peppermint drop. She boarded across the street one door down from us in Miss Maudie Atkinson's upstairs front room, when Miss Maudie introduced us to her, Jem was in a haze for days."
- Scout Finch - 4School"Miss Caroline told me to tell my father not to teach me anymore, it would interfere with my reading."
- Scout Finch - 5School"Now tell your father not to teach you any more. It's best to begin reading with a fresh mind. You tell him I'll take over from here and try to undo the damage -"

- Jem Finch - 9School"Miss Caroline caught me writing and told me to tell my father to stop teaching me. "Besides," she said. "We don't write in the first grade, we print. You wont learn to write until you're in the third grade."
- Miss Caroline - 10School"Miss Caroline picked up her ruler, gave me half a dozen quick little pats, then told me to stand in the corner. A storm of laughter broke loose when it finally occurred to the class that Miss Caroline had whipped me."
- Scout Finch - 11School"Had her conduct been more friendly towards me, I would have felt sorry for her. She was a pretty little thing."
- Scout Finch - 12School"I told Atticus I didn't feel well and didn't think id go back to school anymore if that was alright with him."

- Scout Finch - 17School"School started. The second grade was as bad as the first, only worse."
- Scout Finch - 18School"The second grade was grim...it was not until one reached the sixth grade that one learned anything of value."
- Scout Finch - 19School"...My campaign to avoid school had continued in one form or another since my first day's dose of it: the beginning of last September had brought on sinking spells, dizziness and mild gastric complaints. I went so far as to pay a nickel for the privilege of rubbing my head against the head of Miss Rachel's cook's son, who was afflicted with a tremendous ringworm. It didn't take."
