School officials at Yates Magnet Elementary School in Schenectady, N.Y. totally bought it when a kindergarten girl showed up on Wednesday all by herself and pretended to be a new student all day.

The student, Janeya Nevins, ended up at Yates Elementary because she got on the wrong school bus in the morning, reports the Times Union.

A substitute driver was driving the bus.

Officials at Yates Magnet School seem to have been expecting a different new student on Wednesday—a first-grade girl. They asked Nevins if she was that first grader upon her arrival. For reasons that are unclear, Nevins decided to tell school officials that she was, indeed, this new student.

Happily convinced, school officials dutifully began a new-student intake process.

I just love this story.

Make the best of your situation by just going with the flow. I'd expect most kids her age to start crying and spend time in a nice room while waiting for her parents to show up.

To be fair, though, the ploy only worked in her favor because the school was expecting a new student. Had the school not been expecting a new student, things would have turned out differently.

The kid has potential...

I just wonder if she was smart enough to do this, why didn't she call her parents? Was she thinking maybe if she passed as a first grader, she could just enroll in a new school and have more fun there? I hope she uses her super intellect for good, and not evil.

Just remember Min: Kidnapping is a federal offense.

You wouldn't want to fuck with this kid....reminds me of O. Henry's story.

I love that kid! If I ever have a kid, I want her to be just like that one. Able to lie through her teeth with ease.
