He told all of the kids to drop everything and make their way to the high school gym, which is not far away. While we were in the gym, the whole middle school was there and we sat there for 30 minutes to an hour. The principal told us we can make our way back to the middle school we all did silently. We then got our stuff and moved to the next class. After that, the rest of the day had very short periods, so I can’t share much. When I got home, there was banana bread which was amazing.
