Kris Kringle the Thirty-Seventh was homeschooled. His dad insisted on it. Back in the old days, helper elves and Santas got along. But modern society changed that. Whispers of labor unions and socialism and rebellion. And if the elves couldn’t get to Santa, the things they told their kids, well, that put little Kris in danger. They had talked about sending him to boarding school like his father, but the bullying there had been worse when they found out what he was. So the only option was homeschooling. At least Kris would graduate at the top of his class.
