Roberto was devastated by the grade Teacher Ross gave him. His dream was to follow in his father’s footsteps, work as an investigative reporter at the Belize Daily. Poor Jeffrey, he has a secret crush on Sandy but he is too below her status to make sense of any relationship. During the day he works as a lifeguard at the public beach and at night he goes to a school for underachievers to prepare himself for his career. He never dared aim that high again.Īfter he graduated from high school Jeffrey set his sights on becoming a police officer. Jeffrey did such extensive research and accumulated so much material he had to severely edit his paper to not exceed the mandated eight hundred words. Poor fellow, Teacher Ross wasn’t too particular about him.
Little Jeffrey’s dream was to be a doctor. She liked Sandy.She gave her a grade she most definitely didn’t deserve. But she was manipulative and she used her corrupt little system to control and punish those she didn’t like, and pamper those she did. Ai, Teacher Ross’s duty was to grade according to merit, not be subjective. It was supposed to be an eight-hundred word essay but it barely made four hundred. Her paper, Save the Innocent Animals of the Sea too, was quite flimsy. Yes, a gold star…just a little thing, really…except that Sandy didn’t deserve it. It was that damned A+, with a little gold star in the corner to emphasize the grade.
