I went to find my parents
Posted by Mr. Sheehy on April 20, 2007
My teacher in the lock down was Mrs. Moore. We had been left in the care of Ms. Ducks. We went to our classrooms when the bell rang like normal. When the principal told us we were to go into lockdown mode we didn’t know what was going on. As the time passed we eventually figured out what was going on. We were all crammed in the back room of the science department. Luckily I was by my friends. We were barely able to sit down.
We sat there for a long time then we were allowed to return to the classroom where most of us took the whiteboard markers to write on the “witeboard tables,” which occupied us for the last hour we had to sit and wait to be evacuated. Once we were evacuated we went to the Civic Center where we sat down and immeadiately were told it was all a hoax and that we might have an extra day of school because of it. After that we were allowed to leave by the letter of the area we were in. My friends and I were sitting in letter F. When we got out side it was a battle just to get to the edge of the street. When you finally got to the street you could either cross and get your car and things from the school (if you were the lucky ones with a car) or you could start walking up the street to find your parents. I went to find my parents.
