The sentence talks about an exhausted vice principal who is unable to deal with a group of unruly and restless kindergarteners.
Among the options given, "marshal" means to gather and organize resources or energy, which fits well in the first blank.
"Pacify" means to calm someone down, and it fits well in the second blank as the vice principal is unable to calm down the kindergarteners.
"Restive" means restless or difficult to control, and it fits well in the third blank to describe the kindergarteners.
