Although the HISD chronicles have uncovered much of Miles’ secret careers as both a rapper and a Broadway star, many years of his life remain shrouded in mystery. From the years 1781-1849, Miles not only worked a desk job for the British military, but also moonlighted as a motivational speaker for them. Due to his several decades of experience then, he now works as a motivational speaker for many students today.
During his most recent speech, Superintendent Miles was quoted saying, “You guys should, uh, do your work.” It was then that he dropped his note cards and began to stutter for the next 3 minutes and 4 seconds. Students then began to cheer and clap wildly, while chanting his name.
Another excerpt from the speech stated, “Remember, if you don’t succeed, please don’t try again, as that might bring your grade down.”
One teacher, who wished to remain anonymous, expressed their opinions on the matter. “I completely agree with Mr. Miles. If students fail something, why should they actually have to learn it? Seems pretty pointless.”
Some recently released statistics after his most recent speech state, “Student grades in select schools where Mike Miles' speeches were given have risen by 140% and STAAR scores have risen by 1035% after his most recent speech.” This coupled with his newest laws regarding facial expressions will no doubt help students grow and succeed in the real world.

I agree and fully support.
