The afternoon bell that ends the regular day for students here at Cabot School also rings in the start of a new day for them and others in this rural village. Students return to school to do homework or read poetry.
Adults file in at night for continuing education.
Townspeople young and old drop by the health clinic that looks out onto the village green. They can be found in the inner city as well as rural countryside. Most schools would be dark and silent. Other students are inside, getting homework help or participating in programs in arts and crafts, sports or dance. Later, in the evening, local adults come in for classes in citizenship, English as a second language, computers and other topics.
