Aisha feels heartbroken when she sees the message and starts crying. Her mother notices and asks her about it. She shows her the message and tells her the whole situation, saying that she doesn’t want to go back to school because she doesn’t feel welcome. Her mother sends a message requesting a meeting with the teacher. During the meeting, Aisha explains to the teacher everything that has been happening to her and how she is feeling. The teacher warns her that she should have told her or an adult she trusted everything that was happening. The teacher commits to guiding the student and refers her to a club at school and an integrative activity in the community. As for the students involved, the teacher will listen to them and direct them to the psychology services and to their integration into tutoring groups to monitor their progress. Aisha feels understood and confident, believing that the situation will improve.
