It's from November, 1976.

(first strip, from two days ago)
I don't recall ANY other arc that features Lucy addressing a teacher or the whole class.
Does anyone here? Where can I find them?
Good observation!
Here's the only other instance I can find where Lucy addresses
a teacher:

Thanks.
Even though I knew, from the drawing style (without even looking at the
date, I mean), that it wasn't part of a truly funny arc.
IMHO, Schulz stopped being funny, in the dailies, after 1970 or even earlier.
But the 1970s movies were SOMEWHAT funny...

For sure the ratio dropped, but he never stopped.
I looked up a Sunday strip about Linus, his blanket and his grandma. As I remembered it, the solution/punchline was definitely forced. I.e., clever but more annoying than funny.
To my surprise...it was published on August 16th, 1964!

(this also has quite a few strips I'd never seen)
So I'd say he started going downhill around then.
But I WILL admit the 1973 arc about Snoopy/Hank Aaron was funny.
