When math teachers proctor science exams...

The problems are left as an exercise for the reader ... or the teacher, if one wishes to use them in class. It can be stipulated that there are whole numbers of students and desks.

These are not Calendar Math problems (meaning that they didn't appear on a published calendar), but they would work for a calendar because the answer is not greater than 31. You wouldn't want more than 31 students at the same time anyway! (The maximum number is subject to contract negotiations, of course.)
