The school that I go to has been closed permanently due to lack of students and money. I recently graduated 8th grade, which was on the 16th of this month.
On last day of school, my friend brought in her Wii. Got to play on it for a long time.
We got to see a Blackhawk helicopter. It flew over us when taking pictures of the entire school, and I mean students and staff standing outside, while we all made the letter I. I think we were going to do IHS, but we didn't... not sure why. I got a few pictures of the 'copter, but I can't get my camera developed anytime soon. We all got to see it up close. I even got to sit in it. It was pretty cool.
We got to have ice cream. It was good.
Then the color guard was supposed to take our flag down for the last time, but they weren't here, so two (?) students took it down and folded it properly.
When I was getting ready to leave, I needed hugs from two teachers. Once I left the building, I started crying. It was hard for me, since I went to the school for about 9 years (k-8). I have to do my 4 years of high school somewhere else.
I wish the school didn't close.
