Slowest Common Denominator

The kid in class who slows down the rest by having to get every last thing repeated to him/her 8 times before understanding it.
Teacher 1) I hear you got Tommy and Linda in English class. I had them last year. They're some really bright kids.

Teacher 2) Yeah, but I feel horrible. It's damn near Christmas and we still haven't finished basic sentence structure because Kyle still doesn't understand subject-verb agreement and he asks me 2 dozen questions per class that I've already answered.

Teacher 1) That's always so unfortunate, when the brightest in the bunch are put in the same classes as the Slowest Common Denominator.

Teacher 2) Yeah. I wish there was room in the budget to have more advanced classes.

Denoobres

A denoobre (pronounced "Dee-NEW-bray") is a demerit credited to a franchisee who uses the BOSS intranet and improperly spells one or more words. Each misspelling or incorrectly used grammar equals one denoobre. At the end of the year, the Spelling Czar (appointed by the President) will report to the Home Office the results of findings throughout the prior year.

Those whose name(s) remains on the list at an arbitrarily determined cut-off point, will be eligible to receive a franchise-fee free month, including those ascribed to amounts sent in monthly for NAF (National Advertising Funds).

This system has been implemented on the private intranet systems used by various franchisers to improve the literacy of its owners.
Joe earned a pair of denoobres for posting something with respect to his business concern on his franchise intranet without regard to grammar or spelling rules: "Like I siad, she wasn't someone I'd do business with again."

Use of proper grammar and spelling would rewrite this sentence to read as follows: "As I said, she wasn't someone I'd do business with again."
