“Not to worry Ms. Walters. We can take care of that. Per regulations that were set before the round of interviews last year, we are required to notify your teachers that you will be interviewing us, so they are aware that you will be absent.”

“It will be. First off, this is something we ask everyone, but this is especially important since you’re new to our school for this year. We just want a little bit of information about yourself, so we can best describe you in our piece we will write after the group interviews.”

“Thank you so much Ms. Walters for your time. Ms. Katie Newman will more than likely be the one to come get you and Allison when it’s your turn for the group interview.”
