Lisa asked me to help her proofread her essay today, and we had a few laughs.
"If HMS (Highcrest Middle School) got me as their principal they would be happy as a clam because..."

"Lisa, is HMS singular or plural?"
"Singular...?"
"Mhmm school is singular. Now is 'they' singular or plural?"
"Plural"
"Okay, what about clam xD"
"Singular"
*laughs*
Lisa: "How about: 'If the students at HMS got me as their principal, they would be...happy as lots of clams!"
