How Did He Get Along With You

Whatever happened changed the tune The entire room stared at this so-called goon. He was new to their class in every way. So far he had ruined the teacher’s whole day. Was he the felon classmates thought he was? As did the sixth-grade teachers, Mr. Pea and Ms. Fuzz. Just meeting him, I could give him a fresh start. I am not one to tear a new student apart. Kids were glaring; he had made many mad. Trying to prove he was big and bad. I met him on a different level, he was a delight. He calmed down quite a bit and did not fight. Some students just need some one-on-one. For them school is in no way interesting or fun. How did he get along with you? The teacher asked me. Great, but I did not ask him to do anything academically.

Ah, so true. School life is tough for a new kid just coming into a class. Parents often fail to consider this when they move.

Parents do not realize; it is sometimes a closed society and they do not give their child a chance.
