What does the composition of the panels on page 6 depicting an official announcing school closures convey to you?
The revolutionist at the school is depicted as being evil. She lets us know her disgust for the change by covering his mouth with a black beard. Almost like she doesn't really care what he has to day. In the close up of the man you can really see the devilishness in his eyes.
He shows no visible emotions, yet conveys seriousness and his dedication to the powers that be. He speaks and we don't see his lips moving more like a ventriloquist. The author zooms in on his face and we see his intense glare,looking down on the audience,while the masses look up towards him,which can be equated as a sign of submission to a higher authority.
It seems that the Revolution in the school shows a little student running around with an evil mask on, repersenting the evil held within the shool. Also the picture that shows all the students together seems to repersent the Revolution well. Some students smiles yet others have other facial expression; thus, indicating that not everyone is happy with the Revolution itself.
I agree with Nicholas that the man speaking to the people has no visible expression. Maybe he doesn't care what others thinks about the whole thing. Yet, he's serious about what he's doing, thinking its right and just giving order to everyone else.

The man seems angry and and tough and to speak madly.

It seem that the men are angery and buggeing for some things. also the men on the other picture had a long bear and you can not see their mouth.

I also agree that the men seem angry. All you can see is the disappointment on their face and say “a women.”
