Solution
Mr Petronski wrote a letter to the school teacher Miss Mason because the students of her class always made fun of Wanda's name and dress. After reading the letter Miss Mason was very unhappy and upset. Miss Mason categorically said that the students in her class would not knowingly hurt anyone's feelings because of their funny name and shabby dress. By doing this, she showed her students that she had faith in them. She said that such an incident had probably happened in the class due to thoughtlessness, which was really sad and unfortunate. She also expressed her belief that her students would agree with her in disapproving of the incident. Finally, she asked all the students to reflect on their actions and in this way, she tried to teach her students a lesson in code of conduct.
