Gotta Kick It Up Page #2

And Traded Detention

For An Extracurricular

Activity.

Sweet.

Yeah.

Kinda Like You.

Ok, Ms. Kim,

I Made My Corrections.

Would You Please

Type That Up?

No Problem.

Thank You.

Uh, Mr. Zavala,

It Says Ms. Bartlett

Went To Juilliard--

You Know,

That Amazing Performing

School In New York--

On A Dance Scholarship.

Are You Filing The Resumes

Or Reading The Resumes,

Miss Reyna?

I Didn't Mean To, Sir,

But It Just Jumped

Right Out.

I Mean, I've Been

Really Stressed

Since I Found Out

We Had No Dance Coach.

Do You Even Know

If Ms. Bartlett

Would Be Interested?

Well, Can't You

Force Her To Do It?

Well, Contrary

To What I Try To Make

You Students Believe,

I Really Don't Have

That Kind Of Power.

All After-School Coaches

Are Volunteers.

But You'll Talk To Her,

Right?

Please?

I'll See What I Can Do.

Gracias.

De Nada.

Good Morning,

Ms. Bartlett.

Ooh, This Can't Be Good.

I Have A Favor

To Ask.

It's Been Brought

To My Attention

That You Have

A Background In Dance.

Well,

That Was A Long Time Ago.

It's Not Something

I've Kept Up With.

Did You Know

We Have A Ninth-Grade

Dance Here At Marshall?

And Our Squad's Been

A Bit, Uh...

How Do I Say This?

[Chuckles]

Ok, We Have

A Statewide Reputation

For Being

A Perennial Disaster,

But These Girls

Are Counting On It.

They Have

The Enthusiasm.

All They're Lacking

Is A Coach.

I Don't Mean

To Be Rude, Sir,

But If You're Angling

To Get Me Involved,

Let Me Save You

The Breath.

Dancing's

A Part Of My Past.

All Right,

Then Let Me Try

This Approach.

Studies Show

That Participating

In Extracurricular

Activities

Help Keep These Kids

Out Of Gangs

And Give Them

A Sense Of Self-Respect.

I Understand.

I'm Sure That's True,

But Considering The Way

Things Have Gone So Far,

I Think It's Gonna Take

All My Time And Energy

Just To Focus On Reaching

The Students In My Classroom.

Well, Do Me A Favor.

Please...Think About It.

Ok.

Yes, Esmeralda?

Um...

Well,

I Was Just Wondering

If Mr. Zavala

Talked To You About

Our Dance Team?

He Did.

So...Are You

Gonna Do It?

Are You

Gonna Coach Us?

Oh, Well...

I Really Think I Should

Become More Proficient

In What I Was

Actually Hired To Do

Before I Take

Anything Else On.

Well, If You Want,

I Can Tell You How

Some Of The Really

Popular Teachers

Around Here Do It.

Really?

Mm-Hmm.

I'd Like That.

Will You Coach

The Dance Team?

Oh, Was That The Condition

Under Which You're

Going To Give Me

Your Advice?

Well, Yeah.

You Help Us,

I Help You.

Why Not Make It

So Everybody Wins.

May I Have Your Attention,

Please.

The Chess Club Will Meet

In The Library

Thursday At 3:
30.

Bring Your Own Board.
