The New Flagpole
The flagpole in front of Wayside School was struck by lightning.
Mrs. Jewls’s class got to choose a new one.
“I think we should get a taller one this time,” said Deedee. “Because our school is so tall. Next to the school, the old flagpole looked kind of puny.”
“The taller the better!” agreed Ron.
“Right on!” hollered Mac.
“Hold on a second,” said Eric Fry. “If we get it too tall, then the people standing at the bottom won’t be able to see the flag way up on top.”
“He’s right,” said Dana. “We can’t get it too tall.” Dana had trouble seeing the flag without her glasses.
“We don’t need a shorter flagpole,” said Sharie. “We need a bigger flag! I say we get a real tall pole, and a giant flag!”
“Oh, I don’t know about that,” said Stephen. “It will take a lot of work to raise a giant flag up a tall flagpole every day.”
It was Stephen’s job to raise the flag.
“Don’t be so unpatriotic!” said Jason. “You should be willing to work hard to show you love your country.”
