My school made us go to the library and watch the news during 9/11. We were still elementary school.
Edit: The teacher and librarian didn’t even change the channel or turn off the tv when people started jumping. It is crazy the amount schools all over the country allowed small kids to watch this horrific event. I remember one kid said it was funny that people were jumping when we were discussing it the next day with the teacher. Everyone thought that his reaction was weird.
That's fucked. I was in 2nd grade on 9/11 and the only thing I remember from that day is the exact place I was in the building when the principal came on the speakers to make some announcement. I don't remember what she said, or if we were sent home early, I just remember the hallway I was in, and even part of the decorations the had up on it that day.
