Eighth grade. On the day of the JFK assassination, I didn’t feel well when I woke up and stayed home. I was watching TV when the news broke.

Sister Mary Reginald’s eighth grade classroom. Mother superior came on the PA with an announcement that the President’s motorcade had been fired upon in Texas. We waited anxiously for further word. Later, she announced that the President was dead. We were stunned. Classes were dismissed, and we were sent home. What a time.

I can still hear the screams of all the little girls in the school building when Sister Elizabeth announced it over the PA system.

Probably crapping my diapers, as I was only 2 1/2. I have no memories of the events of that weekend. But I got a quick education 5 years later when RFK was assassinated.

I was at my high school listening to the coverage of the JFK shooting. School was letting out twenty minutes early.

At school.About 2PM the Principal got on the PA and said something like "Boys and girls...something terrible has happened but I can't tell you what it is". I kid you not!
Being 13,having heard that announcement and remembering the Cuban Missile Crisis some of us wondered if there was gonna be a nuclear attack. I kid you not!

Freshman Latin class.
The teacher was a priest who had been a chaplain under Patton in WWII. He couldn’t make it through a full class period without a cigarette, so he would bail after a half hour or so for 10 minutes. NOBODY dared act up while he was gone LOL.
Came running back into the classroom.
I can still remember the words.
Hey you guys, President Kennedy has been shot by a sniper.
