Day to remember
I was in 7th grade at Memorial Jr High School in Laconia. The principal, James Noucas, made the announcement over the intercom. We were dismissed for the day. The room fell into silence as we wait for the teacher to say something. The teacher, I can't recall, had quite a moment as he stared at his desk. Someone in the classroom spoke up and the teacher says we are dismissed.
Some students were shocked, but the majority of us weren't really into politics, and welcome the early release. I walked to the YMCA and played basketball until my mother picked me and my brother up.
My Mom and Dad were very shooked up over the event. This is when I realize how serious this was and began for the first time following the national news and politics.
