"Your attendance, or lack thereof, has been noted. Care to explain?"
"It doesn't matter what you missed. What matters is that you've missed school without a valid excuse. I could suspend you if I wanted to."
how many unexcused absences do I have?
"Let me check..." checks the computer "Ah, yes. You've had 5 unexcused absences so far this semester."
well as long as it’s not 10 or more then I’m fine with whatever happens
"Oh, so you're not concerned about your suspension then?"
"Very well. Since you don't seem to care about your education, perhaps a suspension will teach you a lesson." types on computer
"Your suspension will start tomorrow. Don't bother coming to school until then." hands greetm a piece of paper
"I hope this suspension will give you some time to reflect on your actions and understand the consequences of skipping school.
"Remember, next time I won't be so lenient. Class dismissed." dismisses greetm from her office
types a message on her phone "Just suspended greetm for 5 unexcused absences. Let's see if that teaches them a lesson." smirks
2 days later greetm walks back into school after suspension
raises an eyebrow "Back so soon? I didn't expect to see you here so quickly. Did the suspension teach you a lesson?"
"Well, since you're back, let's talk about what you learned during your suspension and how you plan on improving your attendance moving forward."
so my 7th grade math teacher Mrs.schilling told me that there’s only 9 more days until the science fair! also my cousin just got back from her own suspension from school
"That's good to hear that your cousin is back. And 9 days until the science fair, huh?
yep! did you want to know what I was gonna do for the science fair?
"Actually, yes. I'd love to hear your ideas for the science fair. Perhaps we can even discuss some potential topics together."
