Rumors, and the spreading of Chaos
Morgantown had an incident
earlier this week that caused a lot of chaos based on rumors that were
circulated around the school. There was an altercation before the homeroom bell
rang that involved a weapon and the students were in an uproar. Since it was before
school and we had kids just getting to the school and not knowing what was
going on, they school was put on a lockdown and students were ushered quickly
to homeroom. Students who arrived to school a few minutes late or right on time
had to stay in the office.
The rumors and the gossip
spread, the teachers didn’t know what was going on as well. We hear rumors of
people breaking up the fight, blood everywhere, students were in critical
condition, and we were all in a state of confusion. Everything turned out to be
all right and the altercation was done within the minute it started but the
rumors and gossip lasted all day and well into the next one.
This really made me think
of what life will be life as a teacher. If there is ever a reason for concern then
the students look to the teachers for answers even if we don’t have them. It is
a very scary thought knowing that 20+ students wanting to know information
about you and you have to do your best to calm them down and keep the rumors
from spreading farther.
