Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaMary Ann Jackson's answer to the question of "What did George Washington say, when crossing the Delaware?" is a reference to the Helen Kane song "What Did Cleopatra Say?", which was introduced in Paramount on Parade (1930).
- Quotes
Miss June Crabtree: [asking the children different questions] Jackie Cooper!
[Jackie stands up]
Miss June Crabtree: Who was the Hunchback of Notre Dame?
Jackie: Lon Chaney!
[Miss Crabtree is surprised at the answer, and Jackie sits down]
- Crazy creditsThe opening credits of three Hal Roach "Little Rascal" two-reel film shorts are spoken by identical twin sisters, Betty Mae Crane & Beverly Crane, instead of being shown on screen in traditional title 'cards'. The duo verbally introduced just three "Little Rascals" films: Teacher's Pet (1930), School's Out (1930) and Love Business (1931). Speaking together, their introduction begins, "Dear Ladies and Gentlemen - Hal Roach presents for your entertainment and approval His Rascals, in their latest Our Gang Comedy", followed by the title. They then alternate, naming the director, cinematographer, and others in the primary production crew. They finish with a flourish, bowing to the audience (camera) as they speak together again, "We thank you."

Featured review
School's Out is a worthy follow-up to the previous Our Gang short, Teacher's Pet
This Hal Roach comedy short, School's Out, is the one hundred second in the "Our Gang/Little Rascals" series and the fourteenth talkie. After the printed title of "Our Gang Comedies-Hal Roach presents His Rascals in School's Out" and Beverly and Betty Mae Crane mention the production credits, we see Jackie passing a petition to the rest of the gang to continue school for the summer as he's afraid Miss Crabtree-who he has a massive crush on-will get married like the previous teacher and leave her job. I'll stop there and just say that while there might be some uncomfortable stereotypical humor-Farina mentions looking forward to some watermelon, his dad is in jail, and the cover of a Minstrel joke book is shown-this was a mostly harmless and very funny short and it's almost as good as its predecessor, Teacher's Pet. Once again, June Marlowe is very charming as Miss Crabtree. So on that note, School's Out is highly recommended.
