"I know lots of people say their teacher broke down and cried but Mrs. Periman ( my 5th grade teacher at St. Francis Xavier school ) did not. Of course being that young i had no idea what her politics were. Maybe she was a right winger. Regardless she was a very good teacher."
I was in 6th grade, all of a sudden the P.A. system went on and we heard a live radio feed saying "president has been shot" and we all wondered "what president?" - it never occurred to us it could be our president. My teacher (Mrs. O'Brien) didn't cry, at least that I remember, I know they sent us home and the rest of the weekend was a blur...
