Confusion and Noise Rules! Across the street is a large middle school (what we call high school). The students are the ones wearing the navy and white athletic outfits. They have odd hours –sometimes start at 7 and sometimes start at 8, but out for lunch at exactly 12 back to school at 1:30. Dismissal is out by 3 or some days 4 then some days back by 6 then out by 9 or not back at all. Even though I haven’t figured out their convoluted schedule I definitely know the minute the kids are dismissed cause there is an enormous amount of honking by buses, trucks, taxis and parents when they are picking up their kids on this narrow old street. I have a great video with lots of noises, honking etc but can’t get to YouTube to upload it. Take my word for it – It is LOUD. Attached is a picture of what it looks like from my 4th story balcony - but the noise doesn’t show. After seeing this – Frederica Academy’s pick-up line is elegant and oh so civilized.
