Almost immediately after homeroom ended, Li called the first of the three to her office. “Anna Coultard, please report to the Principal’s Office.”
“Oh!” Anna said. She had wanted to get to History as quickly as possible. “Great!” She added as she changed direction.
It didn’t take her long to reach the Principal’s office. “Ms. Li? What’s going on?” she asked.
“Welcome Ms. Coultard. Please, take a seat,” Ms. Li said.
She took a seat. “So…”
“It has come to my attention that you’re not reaching your potential.”
“What do you mean?”
“You’re not involved in any extracurricular activities and you also have B+ average,” the Principal answered.
“I’m not interested in extracurriculars,” Anna responded.
“And you don’t have many friends,”
“I can’t argue against that,” she said quietly.
“So, you and a couple others will be mentored by another student,” Li said.
“I see,” Anna said. “Who will that be?”
“Quinn Morgendorffer.”
“Quinn?”
“Yes. She was looking for another extracurricular activity after a previous one had ceased,” Li said.
‘That’s one way of putting it.’ Anna thought. There were many rumors about what happened to the Fashion Club and she wasn’t sure what to believe. “I agree.”
“Very good, Ms. Coultard. I will inform her later today.”
“OK,” Anna said.
“Here is a hall pass.”
