The highest grade I've taught is the 11th grade, and the youngest I've taught is the 4th grade.

John Kennedy

I dunno, around 11th grade, 12th grade I was just like "yeah. This is something I want to do". I was always known; I was always the rapper.

Ab-Soul

I did my first musical in 4th grade as Huck Finn. By 11th grade, I was starring in 'Godspell' and 'Pippin' and pretending to be Che in 'Evita' in my bedroom. Singing has always been a huge part of me.

Eric McCormack

There is no business like show business, Irving Berlin once proclaimed, and thirty years ago he may have been right, but not anymore. Nowadays almost every business is like show business, including politics, which has become more like show business than show business is.

Russell Baker

My wife and I started dating in 11th grade.

Walker Hayes

I joined the drama club when I was in 11th grade.

Jisoo

Ellen Barkin, your upcoming TV show ‘The New Normal’ premiers on September 11th. September 11th, that sounds about right. Every clip I’ve seen feels like I’m watching a third tower collapse.

Anthony Jeselnik

I have a daughter who is a sophomore in college and another who is in the 11th grade of high school.

Thomas Friedman

I think I was in 10th or 11th grade before I ever read a book for pleasure.

John Hickenlooper

I hit a big growth spurt between my 10th and 11th grade years.

Rodney Hood

I could do my own nails... I went to beauty school in the 11th grade. But why would I do that now?

Mariah Carey

I dropped out of school in the 11th grade because there was no purpose in it for me. I'm not proud of this, and I'm not trying to promote it.

Lisa Marie Presley

I started rapping because my mom died when I was about 11 years old, and I was a very rebellious kid. I've been kicked out of every school I've ever been in since 6th grade on, expelled and dropped out in the 11th grade. Music was the only thing that I could really use to express myself, so I started rapping.

Tory Lanez

I was always in show business but in many ways was not really of show business. I didn't move in show business circles, particularly, still don't do it.

Dick Van Dyke

In time, perhaps, we will mark the memory of September 11th in stone and metal, something we can show children, as yet unborn, to help them understand what happened on this minute and on this day. But for those of us who lived through these events, the only marker we’ll ever need is the tick of a clock at the 46th minute of the eighth hour of the 11th day.
