Howie Mandel Was Kicked Out of School for Impersonating a School Board Member

Howie Mandel has been a comedian since the 1980s and has maintained his popularity by participating in reality competitions like Deal or No Deal and America's Got Talent, as well as lending his voice to films like Gremlins and Bobby's World. Who would have believed he was a troublemaker in school and was expelled for pretending to be an official from the institution?

Mandel attended a high school in Toronto where, in order to arrange for a construction project to add a building to the school, he took it upon himself to pretend to be a member of the school board. He further clarified this in an interview by stating that he engaged a contracting company to expand the library. He was expelled from schools three times total, including this one.
