I was in my English IV DE class when the governor announced the closure of schools through April 13. Immediately my teacher received an email that said to pay attention for the announcement they would be making at 2:15 pm. Obviously I got anxious thinking of the worst case scenarios. After class I talked to my teacher, one of my favorites. She said "I know you are stressed, but we will figure it out. That may not be for us since we are not a public school. Do not worry about it until the school says something." I kept checking the news dur...
