We miss our students! As part of Middle Schoolâs Social Studies engagement activities, students have been asked to put on their “historian hats” and document the events of their lives in a daily journal. How has their lives changed? What added responsibilities do they have? What are their thoughts during this time? What follows is one example of a day in the life of an 8th grade student.
Emily Grace Anderson's "Dark Days"-Re-Cap of Week One
I never thought in a million years that anything like this would happen to any of us. This is for sure one of the hardest times of mine, and everyone else's lives. I had no idea it was going to be as painful as it is. I have been very stressed and saddened about all of this. I found out that I did not win something that I have wanted for my entire life and worked so hard for, I found out that I might not get to see any of my friends again till next school year, I miss them so much and I didnât even get to hug them and tell them bye because we had no idea any of this was going to be this serious. All we can do at this point is pray that things get better.

I organized the dishes in all our cabinets, and I cleaned like crazy. I really do miss all my friends, thank God for technology! During Governor Jim Justicesâ briefing on the coronavirus today, he stated that all West Virginia schools would be closed until April 20, 2020. That gives me even more doubt that we will go back this school year ... |
