What was your experience of the March 29 soft lockdown? What information were you receiving during the lockdown?
Hannah Witt, freshman. “I was in Mr. Glim’s class and missed Mr. Roznowski’s class. Mr. Glim played World War One videos, but I put in my headphones and listened to music. I was mostly worried about getting home on time.”
Jack Carlson, sophomore. “I was in Mr. Kirschman’s class. Pretty soon on Snapchat, there was a rumor of a student hostage. Students in the class said they were getting texts that there was a student self-harming. There was tension in the room.”
Abigail Carlson, junior. I was concerned at the fact that I had no idea what was going on, (which of course I understand why they provided vague info to prevent panic). I did ask my mom what was going on at the time, but got only basic information on the situation. I heard a rumor that a girl was holding her boyfriends gun for him, and he had then reported her for having the gun. The lack of communication in this situation and pervious situations like this is a bit concerning.
Devin Gonzalez, senior: “A lot of people thought it was the typical drug raid at first and many didn’t even know we were on lockdown. After it went after class, there wasn’t any information at all until we were released.”

Why is it important for us to celebrate Martin Luther King Jr's birthday?
Margaret Thomas, senior: “I think that MLK Day is important because the things that happened with civil rights can be pushed aside, so this day helps to bring awareness to a topic that shouldn’t be so easily forgotten.”
Isabelle Nieves, Junior: “It is important to celebrate MLK day because of the justice and challenges that many African Americans had to go through during the 1960s. The day is to be celebrated for the equal rights of African Americans and the effort that was put into this outcome of liberty. This day reflects the racial equality of all and how Americans were transferred to a different social environment that made America the country it is today. The day honors the life of Martin Luther King and his contributions to making everyone have a better life without the separation and discrimination that many faced daily.”
Shamir Johnson, sophomore: “I think that it’s important to celebrate MLK day because of the impact that he had on the entire world. The words he spoke and the message he stood for raised confidence and awareness for an entire generation to fight for equality. By celebrating his life every year, we’re keeping his message alive that represents the hardships African Americans went through and the ongoing fight for equality.”
Jade Davis, freshman: “I celebrate MLK Day by watching videos on him, going for walks and reflecting on him, and by imagining hes there with me.”
