Hootstown, Montana

It's a typical school day at Sitting Bull Elementary School. Kids in their respective classes, learning about certain things, running around in PE class, and painting things in Art class.

There was a time out room in the hallway, not too far from the boys bathroom. The door was a brown, wooden door, with a window, the shape of a rectangle. It was covered up by a big white piece of paper, for privacy reasons. A teacher was guarding the time out door, which was locked, indicating a student was in the time out room. A girl, to be exact.

"Who's in the time out room?" asked Jessica.

"Don't worry about that," replied the teacher. "Go to lunch, you must be starving."

Jessica saw a pair of blue Keds outside of the door. She didn't recognize the shoes at all. She shrugged it off, and walked towards the cafeteria with the rest of the 4th and 5 Graders. She got in line. Calzones, and salad was on the menu. She got her tray, and also a carton of chocolate milk. She sat down next to her friends, Todd, and Robbie.

She just couldn't shake the thought of who was in the time out room. She ate her calzone. There was one rule that every student know so well.

Information on a student in the time out room was kept confidential.
