Ok well on the date of September 11,2001 i was in school. It was about half way through second period, which is about 9:30AM that people started acting strange and then a teacher came in my classroom and told my teacher "do not turn on the television" so when the teacher left my teacher turned the television on and we saw the World Trate Center with black smoke coming out of the sides. And my peers and I did not know what happened whether a bomb exploded or an Airplane hit it. It was the most terrifing site that i have ever saw in my life. So now that my class and I saw what was going on they told us we had to keep it to our selves because they did not want the younger kids to know about it and also kids parents that might have been working there that day. Well around fifth and sixth period which is about 12:00-1:20PM a lot of students we getting called down to the main office to go home, as many as ten at a time. And then when i got home at 3:30 PM my Aunt was over and her husband is a momunth county sherrif officer and he had to go to the World Trate Center he left around 5:00PM and arrived home about 2 days later. Ok well my name is John Stancati and September 11,2001 made a big impact on my life.
