"Get up," Kloppman yelled. "It's school time! Get up! Get up!."

Grutning and groaning, the newsies got up and got ready. When they were ready, they went down to the lobby. At exactly 6AM, Officer Brynton walked through the door.

"Let's go," he said.

He led the newsies out of the lodging house and toward the palce they considered hell. Seven and a half block later, they reached a red-brick building.

"Wow," Sparks said sarcastically. " I finally get da chance to see what looks like!."

Brynton gave her a hard shove into the door. The newsies snickered when Sparks gave him the finger behind his back. He led them into a classroom where they saw two of their fellow newsies, David and Les.

" Sit," Brynton ordered. "Wait for your teacher."

He turned and left. As if on que, a mean looking guy walked in. He did look like a mean and scary person. Les was already shaking.

"Good morning," he said. "I am your teacher, Mr. Danton. In my class there will be no talking, no fooling around, no washroom breaks. The only thing you will be doing is listening."

"Why?", Sparks asked.

"Because those are the rules," Danton snapped. "And raise your hand when you speak."

On purpose, Racetrack yelled at the top of his lungs.

"Yo, teach," Racetrack called rather loudly. " We ain't listenin' ta yer stupid rules. Ok? So you can shut yer mouth ya scabba."

Danton turned around to look at Racetrack. He was steaming with anger and his eyes were shooting daggers at Racetrack.

"I do not like your tone, Mr. Higgins," he said.

The whole class burst into laughter. Racetrack was trying to speak but he was laughing too hard.

"Excuse me," he said. "I think yer mixed up. Da names Racetrack not Mr. Higgins. "Get yer facts straight ya stupd bonehead."

The newsies gasped in surprise. Danton was bursting with anger and his face was red.

"GET UP," Danton ordered. "NOW! GET UP! YOU ARE GOING TO THE OFFICE. HURRY UP! NOW!."

Racetrack got up and Danton grabbed his arm and led him to the office.
