The X-Project

Dear students;

We seem to have stirred up some unpleasant vibrations in the school this afternoon, and we would like to apologise. Our confrontation was in no way, a "cat fight" as some of you may have thought. Rather, as teachers we sometimes voice a difference of opinion and like to discuss our viewpoints, and sometimes we may do so a little too forcefully.

However, we remain very close friends. Close enough that a few well-placed jabs won't do us any damage, though we appreciate it may have a knock-on effect for some of you, which we regret. Even though Emma may appear menacing, she's nothing of the sort, most of the time. And though Betsy may seem a little soft sometimes, she's more than capable of handling herself.

So, we apologize for any confusion this has caused, and ask that you not let it worry you too much. We have spoken privately about Sam's poem and agree that it shows tremendous talent, and we will both look over his piece again and offer our constructive criticisms.

With love,

Elisabeth Braddock and Emma Frost.
