Amy and Ashley had got into big trouble for throwing rocks to another person’s backyard. I guess the rock throwing caused a broken window. The man was furious, and stormed into the school. The kinds of rocks that they were throwing were pebbles and I can’t see how that can break a window. But the man could be furious, because he could be trying to keep his yard clean and everyday all those rocks end up in his backyard. I personally don’t think that Amy and Ashley should take all the blame for this, because there are other people throwing rocks too. I had heard that teenagers from Arroyo High had been throwing the bigger rocks that are on the other side of the fence. Some people had even seen some of those teenagers jumping above the higher fence and into the person’s property. I’m just a little upset, because they are both my friends, and that incident would probably go into their permanent records, which is a big effect in their future.
That incident probably brought a bad repetition for our school. We could write sorry letters to the owner of the broken windows. We could collect some money and give it to the owner. We could keep each other from ever doing something like this, so the community members around us don’t accuse us of anything bad anymore.
