I didn't mean to make you feel bad, but there usually is some way to get the classes for free.
Consider this:
- The counsellor you talked to might not care about you or Jessica.
- It's possible he/she hates their job.
- He might be uninformed.
- He may be biased.
- Becky got Renee free summer school classes somehow. Renee needed remedial classes.
I think you mentioned that when you and Brenda were talking about Jessica, the counsellor just went on as if you two said nothing.
