That would make sense, but AGAIN somehow it cant be. You see the kids in South Greene aren’t exactly that interested in science I know I saw their scores in science they genuinely aren’t trying. I mean its not even that hard when I was in 7th grade math I got all As, and the high schoolers oh boy. They’re very street smart but ask then a basic science question and they are dumb as bricks
Middle aged me calls it a science trick and understands at a basic level how it works. 8 year old me would have said “Hey man! Hey man! Hey man! Check this out!” not having a clue how it worked, but it’s cool because it involves fire and magic. And promptly proceeding to set the town on fire.
Ditto potato guns, soda bottle launchers (top half a soda bottle, a coffee cup, a little water and a firecracker), Mentos granades (coke and mentos), flamethrowers (just hairspray and a lighter), vacuum cannons and other things that burned, went boom or did something else exciting.
Give the kids a break, they may not be able to communicate their understanding in standard language, but they understand far more than they, and their test scores, realize.

Fair enough still not 100% sure but thats the most likely one so thanks for helping!
