LM_NET: Library Media Networking
I was sitting in my 11th grade chemistry class on Friday afternoon looking
forward to a fall weekend of touch football, when an announcement came over
the pa system informing us that the President had been shot in Dallas. We
sat in shocked silence. Our teacher put on a radio and we soon learned that
Kennedy was dead. School was dismissed early and many of us walked or rode
home in dazed confusion. I don't think the reality really hit us until the
funeral several days later.
I hope you 8th graders never have to live through an experience like this.
