Int. Room 132

A young-looking teacher is standing at the front of the room filled with kids. Some look bored but most look excited for the first day. A couple of the girls from the bathroom are sitting in the back row, whispering.

Miss PHOENIX

(rather nervously)

Welcome to class everyone. I will be your homeroom teacher for the rest of the year. My name is Miss Phoenix.

Miss Phoenix writes her name on the whiteboard in perfect calligraphy. Noelle Brown, one of the girls from the bathroom, snorts from the back row.

Noelle Brown

(whispering loudly)

We're not in kindergarten!

Miss Phoenix suddenly stops looking nervous.

MISS PHOENIX

Miss Brown, I may be new to this school but I am still capable of handing out detention.

Noelle stiffens.

NOELLE BROWN

How do you know my name?

MISS PHOENIX

(smirking)

I know everybody's name. Now are you going to pay attention or will I see you after school today?

NOELLE BROWN

I'll pay attention.

Focus on noelle brown and others.

Marcy Calder elbows Noelle and glares.

Marcy calder

(whispering quietly)

Chicken.

NoelLE BROWN

(fiercely)

Well, what would you have done?

Courtney Johnston leans over and pinches Marcy. Hard.

Courtney johnston

Shut up, will you? You're going to get us all in detention!

Marcy crosses her arms and huffs.

Focus back on entire class.

MisS PHOENIX

(still speaking)

You will be here on time every morning. I'm not a strict teacher but don't think you can get past me just because I'm new. Now, all of you had better head off to your next class before you're marked late by less-forgiving teachers.

The class starts talking to each other as they get up.

Miss PHOENIX

(loudly)

Noelle Brown, please come to my desk.

Noelle glances nervously at her friends, then fights her way through the crowd to reach Miss Phoenix's desk.

Noelle BROWN

Hi, Miss Phoenix.

MISS PHOENIX

Hello Noelle.

NOELLE BROWN

Um, why did you call me up here?

MISS PHOENIX

Were those your friends? The girls you were sitting with?

NOELLE BROWN

(fidgeting)

I know, I know. But they're nice. To me. I like them.

Noelle glances down at her feet, then back at the door, making sure all her friends have left.

MISS PHOENIX

Are you all the "mean girls" of the school?

NOELLE BROWN

Well, um, no. We're just-

MISS PHOENIX

You don't like them.

Noelle is shocked.

NOELLE BROWN

Why would you think that?

MISS PHOENIX

It wasn't so long ago that I was your age.

She shuffles a stack of papers.

NOELLE BROWN

Okay, but they're my friends, you know?

MISS PHOENIX

Really?

Miss Phoenix looks up.

MiSS PHOENIX

They're your friends, but they treat you like trash and don't give a crap when you're asked to speak with the teacher after class?

NoELLE BROWN

(nervously)

Look, I've got to go. I don't want to be late, right?

MISS PHOENIX

Okay then, Noelle. But remember, they're not your friends and you know that.

Noelle leaves the classroom, stunned.
