Mrs. Drazil (who is not from Brazil) is the second substitute teacher in Wayside School Gets A Little Stranger. Although she may be the nicest of the three, she is an old enemy of Louis, and would make him wear a waste basket over his head, as well as have him shave his mustache, making him a boring and serious yard teacher.
She often acts like a fairly nice teacher, at least towards the students she likes. If they are to miss a homework assignment, however, instantly she turns cruel on them, insulting them and to an extent, putting a wastebasket on her head. She made learning fun for the students on the 30th floor, was a good chef, and supposedly knows what a goozack is. None of the students like her, though, after she makes Louis shave his mustache.
Appearance
She is mentioned to have white hair, which was brown earlier in her life, but changed due to aging. She also is 66 years old, and weighs 124 pounds (~54.25 kilograms).
Major Roles
Although not an actual appearance, she is mentioned in Wayside School is Falling Down in the chapter "She's Back!" where Deedee sees Mrs. Gorf on the playground, and Louis talks about his old teacher.
Mrs. Drazil only appears in Wayside School Gets A Little Stranger, and is one of the three substitutes the students recieve. Her first appearance is in "The New Teacher", where she seems to be a nice teacher, but seems to have a dark side.
Afterwards, she is in "An Elephant in Wayside School", where she makes Louis shave his multicolour mustache, changing him to a strict and boring yard teacher.
Although she does not have a major role in "Mr. Poop", her character does have a major role in the chapter afterwards, "Why the Children Decided They Had to Get Rid of Mrs. Drazil", which lists all her good qualities, but then brings up how she made Louis shave his mustache.
In the chapter "The Blue Notebook", more information on her blue notebook is revealed while she is being distracted by Sharie.
After having a minor role in three chapters, she appears in "Jane Smith", where she finds an old enemy, and ends up chasing after her indefinitely.
Trivia
Her last name is "lizard" spelled backwards.
She is the only substitute mentioned before Wayside School Gets A Little Stranger.
She is the only substitute who doesn't directly torment the students.
