1 Answer

Answer :

Hmmm. I can’t think of any instance off the top of my head, but I can recall when a teacher said he saw me when he certainly did not. He told the entire class (9th grade English) when he marked me absent, that he had seen me at a local donut shop that day. Impossible since my grandfather had passed away, and I was in Michigan. My boyfriend at the time was in the classroom and told me. Because I was marked as cutting, my mother threw a fit. The teacher avoided me after that. we had other issues
