 The cherry blossoms are nearly in full bloom, tempting students to miss class in favour of enjoying the sight.

Tripod. Cropped. Local tone curves to the tree, the people and the inside. Slight contrast and brightness. Sharpening.

Personal opinion here. The top third of the pic is excellent. With the window frame, this looks like a picture hung on the wall. With the lower 3rd, this starts to look strange. Kinda like it doesn't belong. Maybe you included because you wanted to prove this was taken from a window in a class room? I think we would have believed you with just the window frame. The uneven lighting in the room is distracting, and pulls from the key subject area. A tighter crop would have scored you much higher. Best ~ d

That would be a window I couldn't sit next to and expect to learn anything ... and a skylight too?

An interesting idea, and a nicely balanced exposure. I find the slope of the top of the window a little distracting, and there is too much foreground for my taste.

Isn't that the truth! I work at a middle school, much too beautiful of a day in your picture for school! Excellent!

I would have stood square to the window to reduce the curving lines.
