in California
After dinner, I searched on the internet for some public schools. One was called Big Brain Elementary, and it didn't have very high scores. Another was Great Education School, and it had low scores too. Trying to find a good school at the age of nine not knowing much computer skills was like playing Hide and Seek with a ghost. It's possible, but hard.
"Crystal Lakes has some good scores," Alessa suggested.
"Yeah, but look," I said. "Zero-tolerance policy. If I did something bad I can imagine what would happen,"
"Find anything?" Mom asked. "Just wanted to check in."
"Terrible," I sighed. "If one school has fun activities, it has low marks. If it has high scores, it has a zero-tolerance policy,"
Mom nodded. "I'm not supposed to be doing this, because you made a deal with your father, but I can show you this school nearby,"
Alessa jumped to her feet. "What's it named?! what is it?! Tell us!"
"Fine, but you girls have to promise me-" Mom began.
"Another deal?" Alessa and I cried together.
"Yes. You have to have good grades,"
"Of course we will!" I yelled jovially, jumping up and down.
"And," Mom continued, " If you get any bad grades, I'll take away your computer,"
Alessa and I exchanged glances and nodded in agreement. Deal with the Devil dealt with.

An interesting plott so far!
An interesting plott so far! I think this is suited to be a good school-story that has many sub plotts that you would find in a book store. Sure seems like it! However, it seems a tad unrealistic, and I got confused when she said something about being homeschooled, and now she trying to find a public school.... could you clear that up? Also, the school names are a bit unrealistic, mostly schools are named after a) where they are b) people. Otherwise, keep writing!

Thanks! But I know this
Thanks! But I know this school called Meadows and a school called Spring Valley that are nowhere near any meadows or valleys. :]
Welcome. Really? Meadows
Welcome. Really? Meadows and Valleys? That's kinda odd, what are they next to, Rock Industrial Winter Mountains? ;-)
