Places That Remind Me of My Childhood: My Grade School



The grade school that I went to, St. Thomas School, holds many memories for me. I attended 2nd-8th grade at this school and seeing it now is almost bittersweet. It is a private Catholic school, and one of my biggest memories was going to church every Friday. Sometimes I liked this, most of the time I didn’t because not a lot of young people enjoyed going to church. I also remember how small my class was, only 14 people, and how the girls and boys would always sit at separate tables from each other. The lunches (most of them) were always really good because the food was homeade by the cooks. One of my less fonder memories was having to follow a strict dress code, which included not being able to wear shoes without backs, such as flip flops. This was very annoying, but I dealt with it with a grain of salt. The best memory I have is during reading time and getting to go the library and pick out a book. This was always the best part of everyday. During the younger grades, I spent a lot of time on the playground, which was refurbished when I was in 3rd or 4th grade and the new one was much more exciting. I’ll never forget the time I spent at that school.
