I have a similar Russian joke I'll translate to English as best as I can

A son comes home from school with a note from the principal, and is met by his dad.

"Dad, the principal asked you to meet him soon."

"Why? What happened?"

"Well, during PE today I threw a dodgeball wrong and it smashed the trophy cabinet and now it needs to be replaced."

The next morning, the dad comes with the son to school and talks with the principal, eventually paying out of pocket to replace the cabinet.

That evening, the son comes home from school with a note again

"Dad, I got another note from the principal."

"WHAT? I was just there this morning! What happened now?"

"Well, in chemistry, I mixed something I shouldn't have, and long story short the room is charred and the sprinklers flooded most of the classes."

The next morning the dad goes with the son to school again, and meets with the principal again. After an intense argument, he once again pays for repairs and leaves.

That evening, the sone comes home carrying yet another note.

"Oh no, don't tell me..." says the father.

"Yep, they want to see you again."

"NO! I'm through with paying for repairs, I'm not going."

"Eh, good idea. Why bother visiting that rubble heap anyway?"

Note: In the original it was more obvious that "rubble heap" was literal
