You get your math test back and realize the teacher marked a problem wrong even though your answer is correct. You need those points to keep a B in the class. You walk up to the teacher’s desk after the bell rings.
You work at a local cafe and specifically told your manager you cannot work Tuesday nights because of soccer practice. You check the new schedule and see you’re listed for a 5:00 PM shift this Tuesday.
It’s two days before your history presentation. One person in your group of three hasn't responded to any texts or added anything to the shared slides. You see them in the hallway.
You are at home with a family member when they suddenly feel incredibly dizzy and pass out.
You’re out with friends and you order a burger with no onions because you’re allergic. The waiter brings the food out, and it is covered in onions. Your friends are already eating.
You want to apply for a competitive summer internship. You need a letter of recommendation from your English teacher, but you haven't spoken to them one-on-one very much this year.
A group of "friends" is teasing you about something personal in the cafeteria. It started as a joke, but now it’s gone too far and you’re feeling genuinely upset.
You have a major essay due by the end of the period, but you forgot to charge your Chromebook last night. It dies 10 minutes into class, and there are no open outlets near your seat.
You’re at a party and the person who was supposed to drive you home has ditched you. Your phone is dead so you can’t call anyone or request an uber. What can you do?
The school board is considering cutting the budget for the elective you love most (like Art, Band, or Woodshop). You are at the podium during the "Public Comment" section.
