When I was nine years old, my parents got devorced. Which meant, I had to move. Which also led to me swicthing schools. Ever since I was in Kindergarden I attended Oak Hill Elementary. I knew everyone there, I loved all the teachers, and I especially loved all the big classrooms.
My mom called me one afternoon when I was with my friends. She told me I was going to go to a school called WestWood Elementary. I never even heard of that school, so that didn't excite me too much. When I got off the phone I started to cry. I never wanted to leave my friends and my school. I liked it there, and was there my whole life. How was I supposed to adjust to a completely different school by Monday? Oak Hill was huge. Long, clean hallways with a big, organized library. I even liked the lunches! I wasn't so sure I wanted to move. My mom said it was a good school, with nice teachers and smart kids. That didn't change the fact that I didn't know anyone.
I went with my mom to find my classes the day before I actually had to go by myself. I met my teachers, looked around the school, and memorized my schedule. I was going into the 4th grade. Which is definetly one of the hardest grades to meet new people. Everyone is so shy, and timid. You never knew who you'd end up with.
I hopped out of bed the next morning. I was extremely nervous, but still excited about my first day. My mom drove me to school that first day and brought me to my homeroom. Then, I was all on my own. The only person I truly knew there was Baxter Banwell. I've known him since preschool and he was the only I talked to. I got to all of my classes alright, and I found a couple of people to sit by at lunch. It was a nerve wracking first day, but I don't regret it.
A couple weeks later after I got adjusted to the school, I made a bunch of really nice friends. I'm still friends with those people today. So I'm definetly glad I switched schools, cause if I didn't, I would have the life I have today.
THE END. (:
That was a sad story with a happy ending! Good grammar and spelling!
ReplyDeleteThat was a sad story but I liked the happy ending. I don't know what you could change to make it better.
