The Class Meeting
The class secretary began writing the students' ideas on the chalkboard. Mr. Jacobs sat at his desk listening. He usually tried not to interfere with these class meetings.
Jerry Simmons stood up next. "That sounds okay, Susan,"he began, "but what if it rained that day? I think we need an alternative plan."
"How about an all night party here at school?" Craig Meyers blurted out. "That's what they did in my brother's class for high school graduation. They had a band and dancing in the gym and showed movies all night in another room." Craig looked around the room with a big grin on his face thinking his idea was certainly the best.
"I don't know," said Jonathan Wright. "Some of our parents might not support the idea of an all night party. But we could do that same type of thing from eight in the evening until midnight."
There was a period of silence while the students considered the options that had been raised. President Alicia took this chance to summarize. "So far," she explained, "we have had three, an evening party. Are there any other ideas before we put these to a vote?"
