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.
I was a freshman in college and it was insanity in our commons area. We were all huddled around the one tv. I cannot imagine how that was as an elementary kid.
