<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-lang="en"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">My fourth grade teacher friend found this under one of her students' desks. <3 <3 <3 <a href="https://t.co/7NSxIa6ujn">pic.twitter.com/7NSxIa6ujn</a></p>— Elly (@SMLXist) <a href="https://twitter.com/SMLXist/status/838844842558046208">March 6, 2017</a></blockquote><script async src="//platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>
Passing notes is usually frowned upon in class, but one teacher was delighted to find this one.
Twitter user @SMLXist shared the note:
"Do you want to join a club for female empowerment," the note read. "We are the leaders."
The tweet gained a lot of traction, getting over 20,000 retweets and 60,000 likes. The user, called Elly, received some backlash claiming the note was fake:

Elly, however, asserts that the note is real:
