Indoor Education during Outdoor Education

Indoor Education during Outdoor Education
By Rachel Berkson
2
I have never, ever been more disappointed in
a any students as I am with all of you!
3
What did I do? What did all of us do together
that would make Mrs. Ellis so mad at us?
4
I cannot believe that after 6 years at Braeside
School, you would represent our school by
vandalizing this dormitory. I have discovered the
initials and writing that you etched into the
wooden doors.
5
What etchings on the door? What vandalizing? I
didnt do anything and never would! I cannot
escape now! I am stuck in the middle of my worst
nightmare!
What happened? Tonight was the best night!
6
I cant believe the best night turned into this!
For those of you who committed this horrible act,
you should feel ashamed. Even though I do not
know who you are, you do, and you will have to
live with the guilt of knowing that your childish
and destructive behavior has made a permanent
mark upon this educational institution in which
we are now guests, upon our beloved Braeside
School and its reputation, and most importantly,
upon all of our hearts.

Ray, this is so sad! Now we are homesick! We do
not deserve this! We did not do this! I am so
ashamed, embarrassed, and confused!
I feel so bad for the girls that actually did
this! They must feel the worst out of all of us!

Why are they snickering at Mrs. Ellis? Why arent
they crying, like I am? Wow- sometimes things in
life arent fair. Sometimes people, like me and
Becca, are falsely accused. Sometimes people who
are wrong do not even glimpse this fact.
Sometimes people are punished even if it is not
their fault. Sometimes even if one does the
right thing, they may endure punishment. So why
do I feel so icky? I feel so empty and sad
because I do not want Mrs. Ellis to think that I
could have done such a horrible thing, and I do
not want to be associated with such destructive
behavior. I will never do this to anyone- I will
never inflict universal punishment upon my
students when I am a teacher in the future.

10 Years Later in Our Apartment at U of I just
before bed!
I know! Gosh, the more I study the more I realize
how amazing Braeside was!
I LOVE all of our Elementary Education Classes
because we get to take trips down memory lane!
11
There was honestly not one bad experience that I
ever had at Braeside except Outdoor Ed!
I know! That was the worst weekend of our lives!
But at least now, when we are teachers we will
remember to never put our students through
universal punishment!
12
I guess we really did receive indoor education on
Outdoor Education!

The End!
