Johan was extremely pleased. The county council had just approved the plans for the new school and construction would be starting in a few weeks. The new school would have larger classrooms thanks to the increased enrollment. He also was able to get money in to hire an additional primary teacher so that he could focus on being the principal and the increased work needed with Pierce University. Eventually he would have to turn the reigns over to another sim, but that wouldn't be for several simyears. Alas, all the changes would be in time for Fall 2006. Right now he was stuck with the lower primary students. He couldn't understand them or why they didn't want to listen to the physics involved in sims being able to carry such large items in their inventory without feeling the weight of those objects. Instead they were content to color and read nursery rhymes.

Ilila meanwhile was enjoying her first year at the academy. The children had quickly learned that even though Mrs. Peterson was pretty and nice, she was tough.

When she gave assignments, she meant it and expected them to be done in a timely manner otherwise you could kiss recess goodbye. She would still allow you to go outside since it was required that students get a break, but your recess was spent walking laps around the playground. That way you got sunshine and physical exercise...just not playing tag as you had wanted.

Thankfully, dance classes had resumed again. Susie couldn't demand too much from her students as many of them were still struggling to stay balanced on two feet, let alone one foot. She only came to the school twice a week to hold classes. Two days a week, the students enjoyed physical education classes with Benjamin Endeavor, or Dreamy Dimples as some of the secondary girls called him. The students also continued to enjoy music classes with Nicole Humphrey twice a week and now there was an art class once a week with Antonio Herendez.

Jesse's class was doing well. Enrollment had increased which made discussions much more lively. It also meant that he had to keep his eye open for students who perfered to study each other rather than their assignments. Which reminded him, he would have to mention to Johan about taking school enrollment photos. It would be a nice way to watch the children grow up as well as a nice token for students to take home.
