NMAH Story NMAH Story: Story How did you witness history on September 11th? Share your experience. I was in my second-period class when the pricipal came over the intercom and said, "Teachers, do not turn on your telivisions and go on with your regular schedule." At that moment, my teacher went to the classroom next door to see what was going on. She told us that two airplanes had crashed into the World Trade center. Nobody told her that is was terrorists, and she thought it was an American plane. The next period everybody found out what really happend. They thought because we weren't "Adults" yet we wouldn't understand or didn't need to know, so they told the teachers to not talk about it to thier students about it and that they didn't want us to know what had happend.My mother told me that on the radio they told the parents that thier children had been informed about it, but we weren't. We couldn't say anything about it in class or we would get in trouble. It was a real eye-opener to all Americans and forced us to face reality and realize what we believe isn't what everybody beleives in the world.
