We had chance, warning, and detention. Everyone had a placard with their name on it and we were simply told: “Put your name in chance,” or “Move your name over.” I don’t remember what teachers normally said when you got a detention. There were a few classmates who were almost constantly in chance or warning and were the ones who most often got detentions. I think I was only in chance once or twice at most. I never really got in trouble until my Senior year of high school. Tens years later and I still get a knot in my stomach when I think about that. Never had detention though!
