Will the photo reach 15,000 retweets?
According to a report from ABC News, Andrew Muennink, a senior at Round Rock High School in Texas, has struck a deal with his art teacher, Cindy House. The deal is that if a picture of he and his teacher shaking hands is retweeted 15,000 times, he and the rest of his class will not have to take the final exam.
“I try my best and the final is supposed to be so hard, so I was like, ‘I have a lot of followers on Twitter,'” Muennink told ABC News.
According to Muennink, he initially proposed a deal in which he and his classmates could avoid the final if the picture was retweeted 5,000 times, but his teacher wanted more. They eventually agreed that the picture must be retweeted 15,000 times by 12 pm on May 23.
USA Today points out that Muennink isn’t the only student to strike a deal with his teacher over taking a test, but he may be the best negotiator. Student Mackenzie Slagle, for example, needs 250,000 retweets to avoid taking the final.
So far, the picture has been retweeted more than 4,000 times. Will the photo reach 15,000 retweets? Share your thoughts in the comments section.
