The students of class 1B walked quietly into the classroom, and finding nametags on the desks, sat where they were placed.  

This is a school for young adults that have failed to meet the National Standards in Math, Reading, Writing, History, and Science.  All of the students in class 1B are between eighteen and nineteen years of age, and whether they just failed earlier grades so they didn't graduate by the year they were due to turn nineteen, or they failed the Graduation Evaluation Exams, they were pulled out of the high school program and placed at this school from the start of the new year.

The students were not given an entrance orientation or anything, but rather, just told to report to the correct classroom of an abandonned high school on September the 4th, which was a Tuesday this year.

Twelve girls were seated, their seats having an empty desk to either side of them in the middle, and an empty desk in front and behind them in the middle.  No one was close enough to make whispers or passing notes the old fashion way so easy.

At the head of the class, there was a teacher who looked around the room at the twelve students, and he smiled with satisfaction.  

"Finally!" he said so that all the girls in the room heard him.  "The government has finally decided to pay attention to what I've been telling them for years, though that means you are one of the first groups that has to pilot the program."

Twelve nervous girls looked around at each other, the room that had basically blank walls for the time being, and the male teacher that stood at the front of the room.  He was the main focus that all eyes eventually rested on.

"So, you all do know why you are in this class, don't you?"

The twelve girls knew that they had not passed the GEE... Graduation Evalualtion Exams, and that they were going to be starting ARE Adult Remedial Education this year, and the time they'd have to spend in the school was at least another four years, where they'd take the GEE again, and if they failed it a second time, they would go straight to prison, even though they had not technically broken the law, and they would stay in prison until they passed the GEE.

That was where society had ended up with the way things kept getting out of hand with spiralling academics in the last 20 years, and now, kids had a whole new fear to face.  If they wanted to avoid prison, they would pay better attention at school!

So, now we open the story, and it is voting time for the twelve girls....

There will be some profiles up soon for us to vote on the twelve girls that are in class 1B.

I'm out to start making profiles:
