I was in school at Northwest School of the Arts in Charlotte, NC. I was in the second period of the day when we heard people yelling things down the halls. We turned on our televisions and watched the news. We then had class change and continued watching it. Next thing I know we are going to the Librabry to watch it as a whole. Then I get a slip saying my mother was there to pick me and my brother up fopr the day. I later found out that th reason she pulled us out of school so early in the day because the Nation's Bank building was being threatened for the next target of the day. My school is about ten minutes away from it. We stayed home and watched the news for the rest of the day and listened to it all the way home. The next day my mother was hesitant about letting us go back to school, because there were still threats against The Nation's Bank building. I will remember that day forever.
