Amy’s walking toward the door of the school, very slowly. She’s wearing a blue dress, and her black straight hair made her look kind of sad. Her face was white, but it’s not a normal white. Her face was white like the clouds, or even the snows. The "school was tremendous, but that’s what makes it feel scary. Everything around her felt scary, the kids, the wall, even the air around her felt scary. Amy’s here, at the classroom, by the lockers. A kid suddenly came out, and she said “Oh, you’re

Sacco and Vanzetti Trial What happens when change meets tradition? When change and tradition meet change is usually met with denial or acceptance.

Any teacher who taught a theory that denied the story of the Divine Creation would be punished by a fine.
