not one HS student is old enough to remember 18 years ago. Few were even born.

but, to your point....stud would always spend today talking to his classes about where he was that day and where they were....stud was thinking about it this morning and the thought crossed his mind that none of the kids today would have even been born.....it's crazy, doesn't seem like that long ago.... Same...

I've asked my first 2 classes if anyone knows of any significance to today's date. Not a single hand. Sad

I took my first period to an American Legion pancake breakfast and we went through a museum road show. Rest of my classes are watching the "Let's Roll" video.

17 years ago I was a freshman in high school and I still remember everything about that day. I'm sure it was the same for those who went through pearl harbor and the end of the world war. JFK MLK all of that as well. Most of my students werent born or were barely a few months old but knew what today was at least. I told them the story about what the day was like in the BFE town I am from and how completely different the world is because of that day. Dead Silence....I guess I am a good story teller.

"We are going to F*** their world up."

"We are going to F*** their world up." We did watch the second one hit. Teacher was getting up to turn it off and start class and BOOM! saw people die on live TV. We didnt cancel any athletic events either but some kids had trouble getting home since they lived on base.
