Headteacher donated his own skeleton to class

[Still Waters]

A Romanian school has been told they can keep their skeleton staff after education officials discovered they were using the bones of a former headmaster to teach anatomy.

Alexandru Grigore Popescu had been working at the rural Puchenii Mosneni elementary school in south-eastern Romania's Prahova county for 50 years until his death.

He said in his will that he had always wanted to have a skeleton in the class for biology lessons.

I think this is a great story about a dedicated teacher.

Grover Krantz (Cryptozoology, Myths and Legends board users know his name) has done this as well with the Smithsonian Museum.
