Summer found herself dreading the upcoming prep rally for the football finals in New Orleans, and the reason was none other than her current teacher, the notorious Ms. Gleason. Known for her strict demeanor and a disdain for anything resembling excitement, Ms. Gleason was the buzzkill of the school.
The anticipation for the grand event lingered, but the prospect of a lackluster prep rally loomed over Summer. Ms. Gleason had a peculiar knack for squashing any attempt at school spirit, and this time, it was personal.
Determined to inject some energy into the prep rally, Summer hatched a mischievous plan. On the morning of the event, she arrived at the classroom earlier than her teacher and classmates. Sneaking into Ms. Gleason's desk, Summer couldn't resist the temptation – she pilfered some candy, a sweet rebellion against the joyless atmosphere that surrounded her.
But that wasn't the extent of her subversion. Ms. Gleason had a peculiar system for class participation – a bucket filled with sticks bearing the names of students. Summer detested this method and decided to take matters into her own hands. Alongside the stolen candy, she discreetly tucked her stick into a pile of math books on the west side of the room, effectively removing herself from the random selection.
As the day unfolded, Summer couldn't help but feel a twinge of satisfaction, knowing that she had taken a stand against the oppressive regime of Ms. Gleason. The prep rally, now unburdened by the teacher's disapproval, became a raucous celebration of school spirit. Summer reveled in the cheers, the colorful banners, and the shared enthusiasm of her classmates.
Little did she know that her small acts of rebellion would spark a tiny revolution, inspiring her classmates to challenge Ms. Gleason's rigid ways. The upcoming prep rally, once feared for its potential disappointment, transformed into a victorious spectacle, a testament to the resilience of the students against the oppressive forces of monotony.
