"Let's see here..."
Quote:-Those that enter the school without child of their flesh become students.
"It starts..."
"Hmm?" Courtney looked up at Dawn.
"Whatever this place's deal was, we've been turned into students the moment we stepped into the school. Only Kelly and Dwayne would've been able to bypass the rule."
Quote:-Students must wear school uniforms during school hours. Failure to follow this rule will result in obtaining the nearest uniform and gaining a delinquency point.
"What time is it?" Dawn asked.
Courtney looked up at the clock. "7:43 AM"
"We got plenty of time."
Quote:-Students cannot leave school until they have acquired five A's from classes. Three A's must be from the categories of English, Math, Social Science, and Science. Grades from the core classes is based on the highest from that category. Grades from the Elective category are calculated separately and the highest scores will be used if viable."We might need to plan our schedules accordingly."
"If you say so, Dawn," Courtney replied.
Quote:-Students caught attending a class in the same category as their previous will gain a delinquency point and not earn a grade in that class.
"Heard that before," Dawn said.
Quote:-After attending three classes, students are allowed to take a break and explore most of the school.
"Okay, so we must take part in three classes before we can roam around where we'd like."
"Really, Dawn?"
"Yep."
Courtney sighed. "Carry on..."
Quote:-Students attempting to leave school before completion will earn a delinquency point.
"Well, that Hannah girl just screwed up," Dawn stated matter-of-factly.
"How did you..?"
"I got a brief read on that girl's aura."
Quote:-Students tardy or absent to class without a hall pass gains a delinquency point.
"Of course, no being tardy. Seems standard."
Quote:-Students leaving class before it finishes gains a delinquency point.
"I think they should've listed exceptions for bathroom breaks and other things you need the teacher's permission for like water breaks and book returns," Dawn stated. "That and in gym class, you usually need to take a shower afterwards."
Quote:-Students may use the nurse's office to skip a class. Do so at your own peril.
"Okay, so the nurse's office is a free pass, but judging by what it's saying... We should only go there if we're feeling signs of illness as usual."
"Right."
Quote:-Students are allows to change uniforms during certain classes such as Gym and Theater.
"I mean with gym, you have to wear a gym uniform."
"And what about theater?" Courtney asked.
"That's situational, Court. I asked Zoey about theater before since she had been in theater in high school and she said it depends on whether you're part of the play or not. You always have to dress the part if you're in a play, but if you're doing the lighting or setting up the props, you don't have to change anything."
"I getcha."
Quote:-Students are not allowed to initiate bullying or public displays of affection with other students of higher or equal standing. Doing so gains a delinquency point.
"Too bad for them; cliques don't exist anymore," Dawn replied. "Not since the push for diversity eliminated them."
"Bullying still isn't okay, though," Courtney replied.
"Agreed. They really should modify that rule to modern times, though."
"Yeah."
Quote:-Students caught inside a faculty-only area gain delinquency point.
"I never really understood what faculty meant," Dawn said.
"It's fancy talk for 'the teaching staff,'" Courtney replied.
"I see."
Quote:-Should a student's uniform show five delinquency points, they will be placed in detention.
"Don't they usually record that information on paper or in a Word document they send to the office?" Dawn asked.
"Typically it's more of a scheduling thing, but they do that if you get a referral," Courtney replied.
"Fair point."
Quote:-Delinquent students can ask the counselor about removing delinquency points.
"Mmm, that one's gonna be tough," Courtney replied. "The counselor doesn't seem to exist here."
"I sense a faint official presence nearby," Dawn replied.
Courtney and Ellody both looked around and... Well, they saw nobody. They then turned back to Dawn.
"Dawn, you're weird..." Courtney said.
Quote:-Students are given a grace period and privacy inside the counselor's office to put on their uniforms upon obtaining it.
"Right, let's get changing."
"Right.
And so, under Dawn's guidance, Courtney and Ellody switched out of their clothes and changed into their uniforms. So, too, had Dawn, who had a good idea of what was up. Once they were dressed, Courtney turned to Dawn.
"Okay, we got that part done. How do we schedule our classes?" Courtney asked.
"I feel we should stick around for assistance, or at least ask for directions," Dawn replied. "I mean they usually automatically assign all four core classes to us, but we should be able to pick out our subcategories and electives."
"I see."
