"Look Mr. Malone, I understand where you are coming from, but the truth is, I just don't have enough in the school's funds to get you what you want."

"It's not something I want, it's something the students need. Your students. The same students that walk the halls, same as the other thousand."

"And here at Silver Creek High School, we try to make all accommodations for all the students and faculty as we can, but the truth is, we just don't have the kind of funding for your project." Mr. Malley, the school principal crosses his fingers, elbows pointed upright on his enormous desk.

"Please don't give me the typical political answer on why the school needs more money. It's simple. This program helps students that are failing, catch back up again. If you don't have any failing students, you get more money."
