I am looking for the title of a certain classic black and white Disney cartoon. In the cartoon a young male fish doesn't want to go to school, but his mother tells him to go. He cuts school, and runs into older fish. The older fish scare him and he realizes he needs to go to school. It was a favorite of mine when I was younger, but I just can't remember the title. Does this sound familiar to anyone?

It sounds familiar to me, but I don't think it is a Disney cartoon. I remember seeing it. I think the little fish was named Small Fry. It may have been a warner brothers cartoon, but I could be mistaken.

I agree I think this was a Warner Brothers Cartoon, I will see if I can figure out the title.

O.k, it looks like the Warner Brother's cartoon was called Small Fry, and the fish was Junior. I found this summary on imdb.com:
Junior Catfish skipped school to hang out at the pool hall. Mama was worried he might have been caught by a fisherman instead. He returns home for dinner, then sneaks back to the pool hall for the meeting of the Big Fry Club. For his initiation, he's sent into a cave full of scary things that ultimately send him running back to mama's arms. Throughout, the title song is sung.

That's "Small Fry", a Fleischer cartoon I believe. Still under public domain, I think, so you just have to look in those cheap cartoon compilations for it.
