PICTURE FRAME

The big, pretty picture swings on its hinge in the dark. The safe hidden behind it is still open.


The only thing left in the safe is the letter from the parent regarding Coach Flannigan:


It reads:
To Whom it May Concern,
My name is Brenda Norwood, I’m the mother of James Norwood, a student at Valley View High who is also currently enrolled in 9th grade Physical Education with Mr. Flannigan. The other day my son came home in tears because of an incident that happened involving Mr. Flannigan during P.E. class wherein my son was berated and humiliated in class by Mr. Flannigan for failure to do a pushup. My son has acute asthma and other physical ailments that prevent him from being what Mr. Flannigan apparently calls a “prime specimen” in “peak physical condition.” Mr. Flannigan teased, shoved, and threw trash at my son in front of the entire class. We are demanding his immediate termination. Please let us know what you intend to do.
Sincerely,
A very concerned parent,
Mrs. Brenda Norwood
