On Monday, September 7, nothing special happened at Kenty Middle School. At least, nothing special happened until fifth period.
"Marisa?"
"Here."
"Lane?"
"Here, Mr. Cole."
Mr. Cole was the only teacher at Kenty Middle School that still called roll every day. The other teachers just looked over their classes and wrote down the names of absent students.
"Danny?"
"Present and accounted for!"
"Danny, here or present will be enough. Charla?"
