The next morning, the girls at Mamy's were woken up by the alarm clock.
They woke up in a daze and saw Meg's thoughtful greeting: "Good morning, working day!"
The girls stood in the living room in silence for a while, their expressions a little strange.
However, just as they finished washing up and went out in the cold wind, they saw a small blackboard hanging on the door of Mamy's. "Today off."
Everyone, "???"
"This … Did Boss write it yesterday and forget to take it down?" Mia frowned.
"But Boss never hangs a blackboard on a day off." Phyllis shook her head.
"But he just took a day off yesterday. Why is he taking a day off today?" Gina asked curiously.
Before they could mutter the truth, the door of the restaurant opened. Meg stood at the door and said with a smile, "Since you're all here, come in and have breakfast. I forgot to inform you yesterday that Hope School is starting today. I have to attend the opening ceremony, so I'm taking a day off in the restaurant."
Everyone suddenly realized that Meg still had another identity: a teacher.
"Can we attend the ceremony?" Mia asked.
"I can bring you in later. There's a viewing area for parents." Meg nodded with a smile.
Amy came down from upstairs. Wearing Hope School's new uniform, she happily jumped in front of Meg. "Father, do you think my uniform is nice?"
"Yes, it's very nice." Meg nodded with a smile.
Hope School's uniform was donated by Gloria. There were two sets of winter and summer clothes. The style was simpler, with bright red and blue colors. However, the cotton-padded clothes were thick enough to keep them warm, and the pants were enough to satisfy the children's active habits.
Meg didn't participate in the design of the uniform. It was said that Gloria completed it alone. It was obvious that she put in a lot of effort.
Amy chose to transfer to Hope School. Meg helped her with the transfer procedures two days ago.
With her qualifications, she did not meet the requirements for free admission, so Meg paid the tuition fee of three thousand copper coins and went home to eat, so there was no food expenses.
This was what Meg and Luna had discussed before. Hope School's initial position was a charity school, but that didn't stop them from building it into the number one school on the Norland Continent.
Hence, for children from poor families in Chaos City, they would always implement a free admission policy. However, for those who came from good families and passed Hope Academy's test, they would have to pay tuition fees every semester.
Relying on the charity fund to maintain the school's operations was not a long-term solution. Furthermore, the teachers in Hope School were treated just as well as those in Chaos City. Without the city lord's castle to back them up, they had to find a source of income.
By improving the quality of education and increasing the reputation of Hope School, more parents would want to send their children to Hope School to study. This would naturally increase the capital chain of Hope School.
"But after I attend the opening ceremony at Hope School today, I still have to go to Chaos School for lessons. Teacher Crassus said that the magic classroom can't be moved there for the time being," Amy said helplessly.
"It's okay. Daddy will send you there later." Meg patted Amy's head with a smile, and called everyone over for breakfast.
The opening ceremony started at 8 am. Meg and the others set off for Hope School after breakfast.
At the entrance of Hope School, children in brand new uniforms walked into the school with smiles on their faces, accompanied by their parents.
These children were of different ages. Some looked to be four or five years old, while others looked to be 13 or 14 years old. However, their eyes shone with the same light.
Meg stopped in his tracks unconsciously. He looked at the children with tears in his eyes.
After coming to this world, he had done many things. However, what made him feel like he had done a good deed was watching these children walk into the school with their school bags.
He had seen some information about the children at Luna's place. Some of them were already digging coal in the mines at a young age, some were forced to beg on the streets, and some had already learned how to steal from other people's pockets and reap without sowing.
Luna and the teachers of Hope School found them one by one, and brought them back to Hope School.
"Energetic children. School is indeed the best place. I'm so envious." Yabemiya looked at the children walking into the school with admiration. "If I was born a few years later, I should be able to go to school too."
Elizabeth held her hand gently.
"You can sit in on my classes anytime in the future." Meg looked at her with a smile.
"Really?!" Yabemiya's eyes lit up.
"Of course." Meg nodded.
"Thank you, Boss!" Yabemiya was so happy that she almost jumped up. Now, she could make up for her regret of not going to school.
Meg and the rest walked to the gate. Meg, Gina, Vivian, and Shirley all had employee passes. They could enter the school after showing their passes.
"These are my family members. They would like to watch the opening ceremony. Can I let them go to the viewing area?" Meg discussed with the guard.
The guard recognized Meg. He sized up the group of beautiful girls standing at the gate when he heard that. His expression immediately became one of admiration when he looked at Meg. He gave him a thumbs up and said, "The younger generation will surpass us in time! Let's go in. "
Meg was a little confused by the guard's random words. However, he still asked the girls to enter through the gate and head to the viewing area from the left.
"Gina, I'll accompany you to the Sea God's Ruins after the opening ceremony." Meg found an opportunity to speak to Gina alone.
Gina looked at Meg in surprise, but she still nodded quickly.
Everyone had a great time yesterday. She thought Meg had forgotten about it, so she didn't mention it. She didn't expect him to say that he wanted to accompany her today.
Meg brought Gina and the rest to the teachers' area. The teachers were all dressed rather elegantly today. They stood about a meter apart in front of the rostrum. Even the retired teachers were all standing tall and straight, displaying the elegance of Hope School's teachers.
The students reported to their classrooms first, and then lined up to the field under the lead of their respective form teachers.
Just like Chaos School, Hope School's classes were divided according to their stage of study, and not according to their race.
Hence, students from different races could be seen in any class. Although they were of different sizes, and the lines looked uneven, the atmosphere was very harmonious.
"Amy is over there," Barbara reminded Meg.
Meg had already noticed the two children, Amy and Jessica, who were holding hands. The two little ones stood at the front of the line, and attracted a lot of attention as they walked over.
"That little elf is so cute. So is the little girl beside her."
"Yeah, they're so small. They look like they're only four or five years old."
"It's so nice to be young."
