Once I arrived at Sacred Heart Academy, I went to the library to meet Phoebe. It was great to see her again. I knew I was going to have a great day! We hugged each other, and signed in and headed for homeroom. Once we said prayer, the day began.
Phoebe had a study hall in the library for 1st period. During the study hall, I talked with some of the other freshman and had the opportunity to look around the school’s library. It was brilliant! The number of books in the library was phenomenal!
After 1st period, there was a school-wide break. This means, the students had the opportunity to have a snack or drink in the café. In addition, it gives the girls an opportunity to catch up with each other. It also gave me an opportunity to try the café’s famous cookies. They are delicious!
Once break finished, we headed to Phoebe’s second period class. Phoebe has math 2nd period on Tuesdays. Her math teacher is Mrs. Vitale. She allowed me to participate during the class too! I felt like I was wanted there and I belonged.
When math class ended, we went back down to the café for lunch. The food in the café is amazing! Again, I had the opportunity to meet with some of the other freshman.
After lunch, we headed to French. Phoebe’s French teacher is Madame Levallois-Sanchez. She is originally from France. Like me, Phoebe studies French too. I was able to see how much French I really knew. I was surprised on how much I knew. I guess Mrs. Driggs has prepared us well for high school.
Phoebe’s final class of the day is English. English is Phoebe’s favorite class because of her teacher, Mrs. B. Mrs. B. is very fun loving and easy-going, but she is also an excellent English teacher. During the class, the girls reviewed their grammar test, and at the end of class, we had a cake, which one of the girls baked. The reason why the girls had cake was in honor of a book they read in class about a poor British boy growing up during the Victorian era. The cake was homemade and delicious!
Sadly, the end of the day came. I was so sad to leave. I said my good-bye to Phoebe and the other girls and my mom picked me up and brought me home.
I had so much fun and learned so much. I really liked Sacred Heart Academy. The teachers and girls went out of their way for me and help me in any way they could. It made me feel good because I felt like I belonged there. I cannot wait until I go to high school!
