Mrs. Puff's Boating School

Mrs. Puff's Boating School

Mrs. Puff's Boating School is a boating school where SpongeBob goes to school. The first time this school was seen was in Boating School. This is the school where Mrs. Poppy Puff teaches her students about boats and how to drive them. The school is located near Downtown Bikini Bottom said in Hall Monitor.

SpongeBob goes here every once in a while.

Driving Tests

Mrs. Puff teaching her class

The student will show Mrs. Puff based on what they learned how to drive a boat. If they pass, they will get their driver's license. If they fail, they will have to repeat the test. SpongeBob has failed 1,970,578 times as said in Mrs. Puff, You're Fired, because he always freaks out. After a student passes, they go to a building to have their picture taken. If they are the 1,000,000th (or any other "million" number like 2,000,000) person to have their photo taken for their license, they get a free, snazzy boat.

The Good Noodle Board

"The Good Noodle Board" is a board in the classroom where "Good Noodles" are awarded with golden stars. Despite the fact that he has failed the boating test many times, SpongeBob has the most stars, with 74. Patrick also has 1 star. Other characters featured on the board have at least 1-2 stars.

Making nonsense two times, however, will cause you one star. Do it again and get sent at the back of the classroom.

School design

Outside

The outside has a deck which leads to the hallway. There is a lighthouse next to the main building. The school has many boats parked on campus.

Classroom

The classroom has a one-way chalkboard and many aligned desks. A giant locker is filled with files, one filled with bad drawings of her. The Good Noodle Board is next to the two doors. The back of the classroom is very much different, as it is dusty and has one table separated from the rest. It has many carvings and bad students are sent there. There is also a supply closet inside. Mrs. Puff's desk is in front of the class.

Boat Smarts Video Transcript

Narrator: "Boat Smarts with Mrs. Puff". This driving film is brought to you by: C.O.B.B.U.T.K.S.B.S.P.O.T.R.A.O.O.B.A.T. (Citizens Of Bikini Bottom United To Keep SpongeBob SquarePants Off The Road And Out Of Boats All Together)

Mrs. Puff: Good day, future motorists. I'm Mrs. Puff, state accredited boating instructor. Today, we'll be discussing the differences between a driver with boat smarts... (cut to Squidward in an airplane uniform)

Squidward: Ripping good day for a spot of driving.

Mrs. Puff:...and a driver without boat smarts. (cut to SpongeBob sliding in on his head next to Squidward)

SpongeBob: Hey, Squidward! Look at what I can do with my feet! (wiggles his legs. Squidward gets angry)

Mrs. Puff: Let's see some examples, shall we? "Tire Pressure". (cut to Squidward putting air in his tires) Before you can even think about boating, the boater who uses boat smarts always fills his tires to the appropriate level. (cut to SpongeBob pumping too much air in his tires) While this driver pays no need to boat smarts. (tires flips the boat over. Then the tire explodes and blows air into Squidward's face)

Mrs. Puff: "Buckling Up". (cut to Squidward putting on safety belt) As demonstrated by this driver, he has enough boat smarts to use his seat belt and avoid a serious casualty as a result of a collision. (drives off but stops slowly at a stop light) Notice how he comes gently to a stop sign. (cut to SpongeBob driving his boat through town destructively) Now this driver, with not regard for safety... (Squidward screams as SpongeBob slams into the backend of Squidward's boat, sending him flying into the air still in his seat and buckled up with the steering wheel in his hand. Squidward screams more as he sees a spiky steamroller driving on the road he is flying into. He tries to get his seat belt off but goes through the spikes anyways) Well, at least he had his seat belt on.

Mrs. Puff: "Adjusting Mirrors". What's our boat smarts boater up to now? (Squidward is adjusting his mirrors) You guessed it. He's adjusting his mirror before he begins boating, unlike this degenerate boater. (SpongeBob is running over citizens while he is adjusting his mirrors)

SpongeBob: Ah, perfect. (cuts off Squidward in the road and drives in front of him)

Squidward: Hey, use your mirrors, fool!

SpongeBob: Mirrors? Oh, that reminds me. I haven't adjusted this one yet. (adjusts it to where the light in the reflection blinds Squidward)

Squidward: Ah! Can't see! D'oh! (puts on sunglasses and giggles. Screams as he crashes into a brick wall. Footage from live-action crash test dummies is showing with Squidward's head replacing the dummy’s head) Ow.

Mrs. Puff: Finally, and most importantly, a driver with boat smarts always pays attention to his surroundings and avoids distractions. Notice how this driver's eyes are locked firmly on the road. (Squidward's eyes turn into a lock but vision the road as well. Cut to SpongeBob eating a Krabby Patty and reading the newspaper while driving) And here we have the epitome of a driver who is carelessly distracting himself from the road and safety. (SpongeBob is shaving himself while driving the wrong way on a one way street. He causes a woman to crash into a streetlight pole)

Woman: (screams) Jerk!

SpongeBob: Hi there!

Man: Help! Lunatic driver! (crashes his boat into SpongeBob’s but SpongeBob’s boat is unharmed and keeps driving. He causes many drivers to flip their boats over and get in accidents)

Mrs. Puff: SpongeBob, I mean, a boater without boat smarts shows contempt for his boater brethren and the law. (SpongeBob’s boat slips in some water and turns around and around)

SpongeBob: Whee! (his boat is driving backwards now) Hi, Squidward. (Squidward and Mrs. Puff scream. SpongeBob’s boat stops on a rock and sends Squidward's boat into the air then into the pile of boat mobiles that are in the accident. Mrs. Puff blows up to a big puffer fish)

SpongeBob: Looks like you guys forgot your boat smarts! (laughs and drives off)

Mrs. Puff: Never mind.

Hallway

The hallway contains many lockers. SpongeBob's contains his lunch, books and several of his extra pants and also an extra pair of shoes, as seen in New Student Starfish. Other rooms (three of them being the classroom, the bathroom and the room which lets Mrs. Puff see through the chalkboard) are seen. There are two staircases, the left one leading to the classroom and the right leading to an unknown room.
