The principal doesn't believe the children are gifted based upon their shabby appearance.... preconceived notions.
"But you can take my word for it that Jeannette and Brian are exceptionally bright, even gifted." She smiled at him.
The principal looked at Brian and me, with our unwashed hair and our thin desert clothes. His face took on a sour, skeptical expression.
