Teacher's pet. 

The Studious Student in the grey dress shirt wants to be a doctor when he grows up. He is wearing glasses to make him look smarter but he has 20/20 vision. He is holding a chalk board with his report card which says A+ of course. In college, my husband and I both wrote an essay for the same English teacher on Pride and Prejudice and we were being competitive in it and both received an A+. We should go back and read our essays again; it would be fun. I remember our teacher was telling us about the romance in the book and he was pretending not to be romantic so he said " I don't really know. My wife just tells me this stuff."

The ducky with the brown hair in the bun is a teacher and she works part-time in the library. She stereotypically meets the look of a sexy librarian with her glasses and her hair up in a bun. She is wearing a pink button down white collared blouse with a denim mini skirt. These ducks are similar to the Oriental Trading company brand of duckies but what makes them refreshingly different is that their eyes have pupils and the white part. The girls have eyelashes but the guys do not. They also have open beaks with their tongue showing and the Oriental Trading Company ducks have closed beaks with no tongue showing.

The Teacher's pet has brown hair and alert eyes that are ready to absorb as much information as possible and then some. She is wearing a purple shirt and a black skirt and is holding an apple for the teacher too.
