On the Saturday when the students were let go for the weekend, all the sophomore teachers were working overtime. They were sorting exam papers and compiling statistics, and the seven to eight hundred papers were all tallied by 10 a.m.
Each teacher received a paper copy of the grade rankings.
Julian Carlton took two gulps of cold water to calm his nerves, afraid he'd drop dead from anger when he saw Class 8's results.
Every exam wasn't just a rollercoaster for the students; it was for the teachers, too.
Ahem…
He wanted to be named an outstanding teacher.
He looked at the grade rankings, and his gaze was immediately drawn to the two words "Holly Winslow." For a moment, he couldn't believe his eyes, and his heart began to race.
Second in the grade!
Holly Winslow: Language Arts 126, Math 102, English 150, Biology 92, Physics 88, Chemistry 95. Total score: 653.
Only ten points behind first place.
